Yes, at least until you empty your hand-pumped home tanks. How much gasoline to you plan to store? 10 Gallons? 100? 1,000?

Every gasoline station will be inoperative. So your driving radius will be pretty short. If you're planning to bug out, then a huge aux tank on your vehicle will be required.

Yes cars & internal combustion engines that don’t have solid state electronics bout the older points & condenser ignitions would work . Diesel engines without electronic fuel injection could also work. The key is not having electronic controls in the machinery. Also vacuum tube radios would work if they can get power.
