A few years back I sold my '82 Caddy to my father in law.  Not a good thing
to do cause I've been forced to watch his string of bad luck and mishaps
(dirty dogs in the cab, break ins, fender benders, hit and run on the rear
quarter panel, etc, etc) on a car that used to be in nearly mint condition .
Kinda painful for a car that you love.
Anyways...  The last thing to happen broke my heart.  Some dipsh!t gas
jockey put gas in the tank!!!!  He didn't realize until the engine stopped
on him further down the road.  He claims he was able to baby it back home
and then siphon the tank out.  My feel and from what I've seen happen to
others in the past is that this engine is done (a transplanted '88 NA).  He
doesn't think so.  I'm trying to encourage him to go after the gas station
for an engine.
What does everyone feel the consequences would be of no action (to the
engine)?

TIA,
Walter
