We laid this rumor to rest back in high school shop.
Gas wont dissolve sugar as said before. Plus sugar will settle on the bottom,and would somehow have to first get past the sock on the fuel pump,and the sock would also have to be resting in the bottom of the tank in the sugar for it to even try to pick it up.
Then it would have to make it past the fuel filter.
If it did make it past,it wouldnt "carmelize" as some have been led to believe.

change the fuel filter and run the pump then change the filter again
or you can drain the tank let it dry then wash it out with water " yes water will deslove suger" then let dry again and re install and make sure you change the filter
the above is how it is done at a dealership also pulling the pump and making sure the sock is clean is a good idea too
