My dad used to use this method to kill gophers. As many of you know, it is a constant battle to rid a yard of gophers. In the end, the gophers win.

Before air quality regulations hit the automobile industry, the exhaust gas from cars was much more toxic. If I had to use this technique I would use my Model A and twist the gas adjustment valve a few turns open. Fortunately I don't have gophers and the hound dog kills the moles.

Driving's a blast, a blast from the past.
