Has anyone siphoned gas out of recent model vehicles?

Good luck. I've tried. Can't do it. Recently tried all types of hoses and tubes to get some fuel out of my wife's car...no luck.
The old days of keeping a siphon hose in your trunk are dead and gone.

You are correct in being concerned.The Ecoboost is not meant to burn the E85 fuel and will most likely suffer detonation in the cylinders if the turbos are spooled up high enough. I would drive it like a left lane driver on the interstate in BR till you can start mixing in regular ethanol free fuel as you go.

I didn't realize that either. Glad I bought the 5.0.
His list of mods is
stock coyote motor
circle d converter
pypes long tube headers off road x pipe
paxton 2200 3.48 pulley 11 psi
3.15 gears
race star wheels with drag radials
full weight car only the spare tire removed
250 pound driver
kb bap
Triangle speed shop tune.
You boys could have those 5.0 F150's running high 11's easily. with mods like these. Video

Soul Gleaux has a badass 5.0.
It is posted somewhere in the truck thread. He has Roush stuff on it.

Every single modern car has either a bypass or a small mesh screen in the fuel fill line. This prevents a tube from being able to go in.
