Unusual uses of ordinary things in cooking. Car pranks or what will happen if you pour sugar into a gas tank. What can you put in

13. But the people do not turn to Him who smites them, and they do not resort to the Lord of hosts. 14. And the Lord will cut off Israel's head and tail, palm and cane, in one day: 15. an old man and a noble - this is the head; and the prophet-false teacher is the tail. 16. And the leaders of this people will lead them astray, and those led by them

Often on various automobile forums you can see such an unusual question: what happens if you pour sugar into a gas tank? The answer to it, if you look at it (you will see this below), is not so complicated. But the completely logical indignation of most motorists will become more understandable: how can sugar end up in the gas tank? They do not make tea or coffee, lollipops or even caramels here. What can a car tank and... sugar have in common? Let's take a closer look.

How can you tell if sugar has been poured into the gas tank?

Most often, sugar ends up in a car tank at someone’s whim, because, by definition, it cannot appear there on its own. In most cases, this can be “ordinary” pranks of hooligans, but there are also times when competitors try to disable vehicles in this way (before the start of various races, etc.). Therefore, the first thing you need to do to avoid this problem is to put a lock on the gas tank cap, which will become the first obstacle for those who want to misbehave.

For many car enthusiasts, the concept of “sugar in the gas tank” sounds like a kind of death sentence. However, let's figure out whether everything is really so complicated? To do this, we will conduct a small experiment, with the help of which we will try to determine whether sugar in the gas tank is really dangerous and what it has to do with the subsequent operation of the engine.

What happens when sugar gets into the gas tank?

One of the most popular legends is that sugar can greatly harm a car engine. Many of its supporters say that this sweet ingredient, entering the combustion chamber, forms a dense soot there after combustion, which gets on the walls of the piston and cylinder, as a result of which the power unit simply jams. Very similar to the truth.

Indeed, sugar, at high temperatures, caramelizes and can even burn, which is well known to culinary specialists. Therefore, for this problem to occur, it will be enough for it to get to the engine from the gas tank. At first glance, it seems that there will be no problems with this either - sugar, along with the fuel liquid, will fall into the fuel. But it is at this stage that all the fun begins.

Let's finally move on to the experiment, which we hope will give us answers to the questions that interest us. Just pay attention, if you want to repeat this experiment, to the fact that it should be performed outdoors and a mandatory condition is compliance with all safety standards - do not forget that gasoline is a flammable liquid that can harm your health.

For the experiment we will need:

• sugar;
• petrol;
• glass container;

Pour gasoline into the container and then add sugar.

After we mix everything well, wait until our main ingredient dissolves.

And here the main surprise will await us. You can spend a lifetime waiting for sugar to dissolve, because, as it turns out, sugar does not dissolve in gasoline! As a result, we understand that the legends that tell us about jammed engines caused by sugar added to the gas tank are fiction!? Without a doubt, adding a “sweet white ingredient” to the gas tank will not go completely unnoticed for the engine - sugar, of course, will get onto the fuel system filters and, no matter how much you want it, will clog them.

Unusual uses of Coca Cola

Strange as it may sound, Coca Cola is a really healthy drink, but not for our health. It’s not for nothing that they say that those who drink Coca-Cola in considerable quantities have livers like those of alcoholics - after all, the active ingredient of the drink is phosphoric acid. Its pH is 2.5 and this acid is used both for the production of carbonated drinks and for the production of fertilizers and textiles. Carry out this experiment: put a piece of raw meat in a glass of Cola and leave for a day. The result will discourage anyone from drinking the drink - the acid contained in Coca Cola will eat away at the meat into something resembling an open wound with gangrene. Imagine what happens to our stomach!

1. They say Coca Cola can completely dissolve nails in just 4 days. I haven’t tried it, but I’m willing to believe it. I have heard more than once about the cleansing properties of this drink. Indeed, Coca Cola not only removes rust, dissolves chewing gum, and cleans plumbing fixtures, it is also added to laundry detergent for effectiveness. Let’s talk about these useful properties, so to speak, everyday ones.
2. Use Coca Cola to clean your bathroom. Using Coke you will clean 3 main elements of the bathroom: bathtub, sink and toilet. Pour 1-2 glasses of drink into the toilet, close the lid and leave for an hour - death to bacteria! Then use a brush and clean the toilet as usual. When you're done, simply flush and enjoy the cleanliness of your toilet. In addition, Cola will also eliminate the unpleasant odor. Cola Cola will remove limescale and dirt from the sink and bathtub. Apply it directly to the surface and wipe with a cloth. It will also help clear the drain pipes of hair and other debris that has accumulated there.
3. Remove fat with Coca Cola. A wonderful drink. It will help you clean your clothes not only from greasy “kitchen” stains, but also from machine oil if you get dirty while repairing your car. Soak the soiled items with Coca Cola - pour the drink directly onto the stain and leave for two hours. The acid contained in Cola will separate the fat from things and will not stain the clothes you use it on. If you are removing an oil stain from a surface, first blot off any excess oil with a towel, but do not rub to avoid making the stain larger! Then completely fill the stain with Cola and leave for 8-10 hours. Then soak up the remaining oil again with a towel and wash the stain first with warm water and dishwashing detergent, and then rinse off the soapy water with a hose.
4. Another benefit of Coca Cola is that it perfectly cleans tiled floors and removes marker marks on the carpet.
5. Use Coca Cola in your car. For example, instead of a glass cleaner, this is an effective remedy for dust and other dirt. Apply Cola to the windshield, then wipe it - Cola will eat away the dirt. Coca Cola is also an excellent tool for removing corrosion and oxidation on battery terminals. Apply the drink to problem areas and leave for a while. The acid contained in Cola will cope with corrosion. Remove any residue with a sponge.
6. Get rid of rust with Coca Cola. Place the rusty object in a container with Cola and leave it for a day, and after removing it, wipe it with a towel. In the same way, you can add shine to old coins. By the way, Coca Cola will remove old rust stains from clothes. Wet the area where there is rust with Coca Cola, let the liquid “fight” with the stain for 5-10 minutes, then wash the clothes.
7. Use Coca-Cola to clean burnt-on food from pans. Pour cola into the pan and bring it to a boil. Carbon dioxide and high temperature will do the job perfectly. By the way, by pouring Coca-Cola into a kettle and boiling it, you will get rid of scale.

10. Coca-Cola distributors in the United States have been using it to clean their truck engines for 20 years.

Unusual uses of Tea

A cup of tea? Perhaps... But don’t rush to throw the used tea leaves or tea bag into the trash! No, I’m not talking about pouring boiling water over again and drinking tea again. You already know that products are not only food, and tea is not only a drink. So, unusual uses of tea are on the agenda. Let's see what benefits the use of tea in everyday life can bring.

1. The most common use of tea bags is as compresses to soothe tired eyes. Soak the tea bags in ice water or simply fill them with water and leave them in the refrigerator for a while. Tea will not only relieve redness and swelling, but also soothe tired eyes.
2. Tea will also help with bruises. Apply a freshly brewed but already cooled bag of black tea to the bruised area and the bruise will go away much faster. The fact is that black tea contains tannins, which reduce swelling and constrict blood vessels. To achieve the best result, apply the compress twice a day, leaving it on for 20 minutes.
3. Tea can be used as a remedy for sunburn. Wet tea bags will help ease the pain of a sunburn, and if your entire body is sunburned, take a tea bath.

5. For acne, it is useful to wash your face with green tea.
6. Tea will also help with problems in the oral cavity.

Once applied to sore spots, the tea will relieve pain and speed up healing. You can also stop bleeding from a pulled out or lost tooth.
7. Use tea to freshen your breath. Gargling with strong tea reduces bad breath.
8. Use tea in the bathhouse, because poured onto the stones in the steam room, it will saturate the steam with the smell of herbs. Choose herbs for tea depending on the purpose. If you just want to saturate the steam room with aromatic steam, choose what you like best, but if you want to make it healthy, you should consider the following: green tea will improve the condition of the skin if it has scratches, sores or allergic rashes. If you want to relax well and relieve stress, pour tea made from chamomile, valerian root and yellow or black tea onto the sauna stove.

11. Used dry tea sprinkled around a pet's bed will help get rid of fleas, and the smoke from burning tea leaves will repel bloodthirsty mosquitoes. Neither does moth have warm feelings for tea.

12. Tea is an excellent organic fertilizer containing many nutrients. Use spent tea to feed plants.

14. If you are allergic to detergents, tea can be used to wash dishes. As strange as it may sound, tea actually has cleansing properties.

Remember that after cleaning you need to wipe the surfaces dry, because tea is a good natural dye.
15. The coloring properties of tea will also be used in everyday life. For example, when restoring the color of suede fabric. To do this, brew strong tea.
