It all produces CO. You'll have to deal with all the noxious gases emitted by the engine, though.

I just remembered — a few years ago, there was a mother and daughter who passed away after bringing a generator into their cabin. They were both found on the floor the next day, looking as if they were asleep. It seems they never realized anything was wrong, no uncomfortable smells etc

I don't see how they didn't smell anything with a generator. They put out all kinds of noxious pollutants along with the CO. Unless they went to sleep right away, I guess. Yeah, quite a few people die in their sleep each year due to CO poisoning caused by plugged-up chimneys and faulty furnaces, and they never realize anything is happening.

Tragic mistake of mum and daughter found dead in burger hut

Ah ok no worries just an article about them. if you google inquest into Leah Churchill, 50, and her 17-year-old daughter Brooke Wanstall found dead in burger hut Whitstable England. Something should come up about them

Based on another thread on here, I'm going to be attempting my gas powered chainsaw running in my car inside an enclosed garage. The small space inside the sealed car and letting the saw run 5-10 minutes before I get inside should help build up a lot of CO so that, hopefully, I'll be off to sleep pretty quickly and the noise or other smells will not be a problem.

Sealing car?

When will you go

Can you please keep the board posted

The car is well sealed by design. Low noise infusion from outside and little air escapes as evident in being able to keep hot on cold days or cool on hot days inside the car. What little air may escape should be minimal. While cars are producing less pollution in modern times, they have definitely improved the sealing factor of the main cabins of cars. So, if you can get the CO generated in there, you have a nice confined space to keep it.

My intentions right now are sometime in August, mid-to-late August most likely. My money runs out the end of next month and bills will start going unpaid in August. I want to be gone before I'm homeless and before I lose necessary services, plus I'll be unable to buy food anymore once I spend my July food budget.

I plan on posting here as I get closer with more thoughts... maybe I'll start a thread specifically for that with "carbon monoxide" and "chainsaw" in the title to catch attention. Assuming it all works out, my last post on here would be the evening/night when I decide to pull the trigger... and then everyone would know it worked because I wouldn't be back after that.

Wouldn't it only be a few seconds of consciousness

I don't think that's a given with a car in a garage. I say it would be a lot longer than that.

I don't think I could handle the sound of a lawnmower for however long it takes. Not exactly the sound I want to listen to as I fade into the darkness.

Generators are quiet

I know. I only said lawnmower because they said it in the OP.

I could not imagine putting a whole ass lawnmower in my car. Or a chainsaw frankly.

But people recommend earbuds and hunting headphones on top

Chainsaw sounds aren't that bad, and my plan is to leave it running inside the car for a bit first to build up the CO before I even get in. In theory I should only be awake a minute or two before I'm out and soon gone. For some the smell of fuel is worse than the noise, I think. But I happen to like the smell of gasoline.

Any way to get around it besides using grill? Hose from tailpipe?

I'm not worried about noxious gasses. For one, the saw isn't emitting that much, I've been around it and used it for its intended purpose. For two, letting it build up in the car 5-10 minutes means it should have more than required CO built-up inside the car to knock me out pretty quickly. The car wouldn't generate as much CO as quickly, because of modern emission protections... so it would take a lot longer to build up enough and that would be even more potential noxious gasses if that was a concern.

The charcoal/grill method has a lot of ways (others have written) to get it wrong and be around even more smoke inhalation that would be harder to tolerate and if you don't measure out the right amount of charcoal you'll wake up later disappointed as some have reported in threads. The saw is a no muss no fuss way of just cranking it and letting it run to generate the CO while I wait in the house for a bit before hopping in for lights out.

That's where the exhaust emits from - the tailpipe.

I think an engine of some sort is more reliable, good luck

Anything you can say to boost confidence on reliability

You mean for vehicle exhaust? It's how they used to do it in the "old" days. It was the go-to method in the 1960s and even the 1970s. Use an old car. Run a pipe into the cabin. Don't get discovered early.

Thinking about chainsaw im neurotic.

"Once again, the health risks of being interrupted during this method are serious, and can include memory defects and Parkinsonism, as well as dementia, psychosis, paralysis and blindness. So it is essential to ensure there will be no interruptions if using this method. And anyone seriously considering this method may want to read Help me first."

Is there a chance the engine could stall as a result of carbon monoxide backing up into the exhaust?"

You know a gas-powered chainsaw has an engine, right?

Most of the failures I have seen on this site either are from people who were interrupted or people using charcoal that didn't seal the room well or didn't use enough charcoal or didn't wait until it was properly burned and ready for use.

Everything has a failure rate, though. There are no 100% methods. But from everything I'm reading, the keys are generating a consistent amount of CO in an enclosed/sealed space. For a method like the chainsaw it can take a few minutes to build up to lethal levels inside a small space, which is why I'm planning on letting it build up inside the car 5-10 minutes before I get in there... so it should be well beyond lethal levels and the saw runs at least 30 minutes during heavy use, so should go 45 minutes maybe in idle. Should be well long enough to keep an increasing supply of CO inside the car and knock me out fast and then I'll never wake up.

Of course the proof will be in the pudding when I try in a couple of months. I'll post here a better version of what I do the day I do it, and then if I never come back again after that, everyone will know it worked.

I don't see how that's possible. It's (CO) worked for thousands (I believe that's a safe, general estimate) of others in the past. Any engine could "stall" at any time for various reasons, perhaps even serendipitous ones.
