As title says. I was in board with jumping from a bridge that's fairly accessible to me. But I want a bit of a less public option.
I have a small portable grill. It runs in butane cans and has an abundance of carbon monoxide warnings. It's defective in the sense that the "low" temperature turns off the flame and from what I can tell just releases the fuel.
Would I be able to just toss that butane leaking grill in my car and hop in with it and die?
It seems too easy so I feel like I'm missing something. Do I have to like seal my car or something or would it be better to just use the closed off trunk (I can fit comfortably in my trunk and have even slept there before).

The release of fuel itself is not CO. CO is formed from the incomplete combustion of a fuel when a fuel source lacks sufficient oxygen during combustion. In such cases, the fuel does not burn completely and produces byproducts other than carbon dioxide and water. Carbon monoxide is one of the primary byproducts formed during incomplete combustion processes. The vehicle is going to have leakage, hence a supply of O2 for the butane's combustion process. Butane is amongst the most efficient fuels, typically burning much cleaner in comparison to other fuels. In other words it is highly unlikely that burning it inside a vehicle will produce dangerous levels of CO. Additionally, you would need to burn multiple cans of the butane at the same time, all burning with incomplete combustion, to even think of producing enough CO to create a dangerous environment. It's just not going to work.

gotcha, is there any way to make it release co? Would it have to be a burning flame?
I mean I bought a pack with several bottles of butane as it was on sale so I wouldn't mind buying another 3 stoves to really make it work

Yeah, hook multiple cans to multiple stoves, light them all, and make them burn inefficiently, which I don't have any idea how to do. You'd need WAY MORE than 3 stoves in my estimation and opinion. And I wouldn't trust it, either, to produce enough CO capable of killing because, as I said, butane is too "clean" burning. You're better off with charcoal.
