Does gasoline poison you?
So recently I died and respawned in Elektro on a full server. On aside note it was strangely abandoned for a full 50 person server.

Anywho I found a gasoline tank that was 20% full in a garage.

Me being me I went to the middle of the town (which was still strangely abandoned) and drank the entire thing.

The immediate effects were that I was stuffed and hydrated right afterwards. However I didn't get any poisoning effects nor did I die.

Anyone know if gasoline in the game is poisonous?

Gasoline is supposed to be poisonous; However the Jerry Cans can be filled with water so perhaps you just got lucky?

Also at 20% it should have made you throw up from being too Stuffed because iirc it only takes 2% to fully Hydrate you

hmm I would think it should poison you. I drank virtually a full one and thought I was a goner .. .but I puked it up right afterwards and had no ill effect.

I once got sick from drinking gasoline. I have poured gasoline into PET bottle cuz I wanted to leave it somewhere for someone else to drink (trap). However the next day I joined the server still having that PET bottle in my inventory I totally forgot about the gasoline in my PET bottle and drank it like there was no tomorrow. So I got sick but puked right after I drank it.

I am currently carrying a PET bottle full of gasoline, a nice refreshing dring for anyone who kills me.

What?

gasoline ingestion will seriously harm you and can kill you.

http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/002806.htm


    Ingestion
    Gasoline is not as readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract as from the respiratory tract. In adults, about 20 to 50 g can cause severe intoxication and 350 g (12 oz.) can result in death for a 70 kg individual. As little as 10 to 15 g (less than one-half ounce) may be fatal in children. Symptoms of intoxication by ingestion of gasoline can range from vomiting, vertigo, drowsiness and confusion to loss of consciousness, convulsions, hemorrhaging of the lungs and internal organs, and death due to circulatory failure. Ingestion can cause irritation to the gastrointestinal mucosa and can be complicated by pulmonary aspiration, resulting in chemical pneumonitis.

I hope you don't continue to pass that misinformation along. You could become responsible for contributing to someone's maiming or death.

In the N.T they sell "low aromatic" fuel so the ♥♥♥'s can't get high from it. At least it stops them from draining your cars tank for fuel. lol
