Cool Wisconsin Man Uses Lighter To Check Gas Level
Not one of the brighter Wisconsinites:

Police in Wisconsin said a man was arrested after he used a cigarette lighter while trying to siphon gasoline from a van. The man, who was visiting friends, went to drive home early Saturday but realized that he didn't have enough gas in his SUV.

Police said the man tried to siphon the gas with help from another woman, but he couldn't see how much gas was in the container, so he used the lighter to check.

Re: Wisconsin Man Uses Lighter To Check Gas Level
Maybe he should trade in his SUV for a Honda Civic or something. Won't have to syphon as often that way.

I was doing the same thing, only with one of my own cars, a friend of mine wanted to see if the gas was coming up the clear hose yet. He flicked his Zippo, and...
