Getting gasoline in your lungs is frequently FATAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It causes what is called chemical pneumonia.  During the 1974 gas
shortage when many people tried to siphon gas, many died from
chemical pneumonia.
It is not worth risking death to suck gas with your mouth.  Unless you
want to enrich the gene pool, use something besides your mouth.
