How long would it take to die from carbon monoxide poisoning from running your car in a closed garage?


Oh, and by the way, I am just asking. Just curious. I had heard about people committing suicide this way and I was just wondering approximately how long it takes.

I don't know, but it would involve a lot of variables.

Such as:
- The ratio of gas/air it takes to kill someone (no idea)
- How much Carbon Monoxide the particular car produces per minute
- The size of the garage
- How air-tight the garage is

My guess would be somewhere from 1 to 3 hours for an average situation

less than five minutes!

It is a long and painful process. Probably one of the worst ways to go besides burning. But the fact that you ask this question makes me a little scared for you. Call a sucide hotline right now

to long

too long, todays cars reduce the CO2 output
