I've seen it in movies and have read news stories about people dying by sitting in their car while it's running in an enclosed space (garage) I've been trying to find more information on this but can't find much. I saw a report from a few days back saying a man died after only 35 minutes of exposure. I've read it can take as little as 10 minutes to a couple hours. Does anyone know more about this method? I'm wondering if it would be painful.

As done in the movies, i.e running a car in closed place/hose from the exhaust into the car does not work anymore with newer cars. With a lot older cars it can work, but do your research.

CO-poisoning by other means: supposed to be relatively painless and quick. From my experience with a mild CO poisoning: acts fast, as CO is odorless so it's dangerous in that sense, it creeps up on you. Almost lost consciousness in just a few minutes of exposure to a relatively small amount (I guess, didn't measure this, the poisoning was accidental). No pain or anything. After effects of the poisoning: relatively bad. Nausea, racing heart, headaches.

Honestly this method sounds to good to be true. I have a jeep 2004 but yeah I will have to look further into that. Thank you sm

Have you read the Carbon Monoxide mega thread?

https://sanctioned-suicide.net/threads/carbon-monoxide-megathread.2053

Also, there's a section in the latest PPeH (2019) on CO poisoning:

Almost impossible to pull off. Because ALL newer cars (post 1975 models) are fitted with catalytic converters. So 99% of the dangerous fumes are already filtered before they escape through the exhuast. You'll end up fucking up your body with fumes instead of CO.

Most cases that you read about are due to leaks within within the vehicle. And also because of cold temperature (takes 5 mins in cold weather for the converters to really work - they have to warm up before being effective) ... also due to very few models that do not comply to regualtions. Many people have tried to use this method and failed. Very few have pulled it off.

The thing that stops all the lethal gases from coming is the catalytic converter.
It's located underneath your car behind the resonator and the muffler. A lot of car enthusiast remove it as it makes your car significantly louder. Check your state to see if removing it is illegal, in mine it is. Or country

I have no chance with my car as it has four catalytic converts ! it`s 25 years old and sails through the emission test every year clean as a whistle
