I have heard that putting sugar in my fuel tank may lead to my vans not working anymore. This is an outcome I am looking to avoid.

I use these vans to transport children, who I usually pick up from sites about a few miles out. I would be really miffed if those vans were disabled in such a way that they were not able to make it to those children.

Are there any other actions I should avoid taking with my vans? I really wouldn’t want to cause damage to them in such a way that they would fail before the children got inside them.

a liter of Urine in the fuel tank would disable them, so make sure plenty of restrooms are available.

A $5 magnet and $30 of electrical equipment could cause the electrical systems to permanently burn out as the induced voltage might go too high. so you may wish to ensure electrical diagnostic equipment is properly grounded and not connected to electrical mains.

Also be careful with unidirectional speakers, they can shatter windows and cause extreme disorientation in the drivers even if the children in the vehicle can't hear it...
