(His garage was well away from his house - both horizontally and vertically, he lived in Dunedin) And left it there &#34;in case&#34;.<br/><br/>20 or so years later he parked his car in the garage, got out and would have sat down on his petrol tin to rest for a few minutes (emphysema is a bastard) and it wasn&#39;t there.<br/><br/>Somewhere else in Dunedin, we guess, some little shits were finding out that ten gallons of 20+ year old petrol, when tipped into whatever type of car little dropkick bogans drove at the time, didn&#39;t run nearly as well as new petrol bought from the petrol station... 2026-03-23T04:24:22Z
