    I’m surprised I haven’t seen more calls to puncture the radiator. That would lead to the engine shutting off and being immobilized pretty quickly.

      Would puncturing the bottom radiator hose not really leak until the pump starts up? Like it would be a slight drip that could be overlooked/unnoticed and a full stream once on and running. Hopefully after driving away a few miles.

        Yeah that’s why I think radiator damage is the way to go. They will most likely get stuck on the freeway which is a royal fucking pain.

          Why do all that? I’d just wedge some oil or gas soaked rags on top of the catalytic converter. Once the car warms up, the vehicle burns down.
