I’ve never considered what a shitload of silica gel would do inside a gas tank… It can’t be anything good, but I doubt it would get past the fuel filter. The vehicle probably won’t run but the fix isn’t super difficult, just a new fuel tank + pump and you’re good to go.
Pouring it into the oil intake would have much more interesting results but you aren’t getting in there unless a) you have cab access to pop the hood latch, or b) you’re willing and able to destroy so much of the vehicle to access that that whatever you do afterward starts to not even matter.
What about that absorbent gel made to clean up tanker truck spills I think I’ve seen some sold to make toilet replacement easier

I’ve always wondered what a diy thermic lance would do to the engine of a usable vehicle
I imagine it would then present you with an unusable vehicle.
