It's called "sarcasm".  Or in your case "sarCHASM", the enormous gap
between my sarcasm and your catching it.  

I would think that it depends on the size of the bowl and the engine's
consumption of fuel.  The 3 rotor racecar would only run 30 seconds from
the carb bowl.

Where did you get the gas to put in the coke bottle?  Do you drive around
with a spare coke bottle full of gas?
