“The one thing that does have a broad level of agreement among those who have studied the matter is that obtaining fuel after any kind of electromagnetic disaster would be a matter of extreme difficulty. Any particular vehicle may or may not run, until it runs out of fuel; then it will not run any longer until the fuel production and distribution system can be re-started.”

So if a few stations invested in a hand pump system
BEFORE an EMP attack emergency transportation could exist for years?

I’m not studied up on this matter. I was just investigating certain posts on this thread, and...

A Carrington Event would fry all electronics - no more cars, or TV or internet or radio or water pumped to the house or hvac or electric lights or refridgeration or solar panels or computers or automobiles manufactured with a computer or anything with transistors - unless care was taken to store electronic devices in a way to protect them from electromagnetic radiation.

Per Wikipedia:

Other evidence and similar events

Ice cores containing thin nitrate-rich layers have been analysed to reconstruct a history of past solar storms predating reliable observations.

It is claimed that data from Greenland ice cores show evidence of individual solar-proton events, including the Carrington event.[21] More recent work by the ice core community shows that nitrate spikes are not a result of solar energetic particle events, and, indeed, no consistency is found in cores from Greenland and Antarctica, and nitrate events can be due to terrestrial events, such as burnings, so use of this technique is in doubt.

[22][23] Less severe storms have occurred in 1921 and 1960, when widespread radio disruption was reported. The March 1989 geomagnetic storm knocked out power across large sections of Quebec. On July 23, 2012 a "Carrington-class" solar superstorm (solar flare, coronal mass ejection, solar EMP) was observed; its trajectory missed Earth in orbit. Information about these observations was first shared publicly by NASA on April 28, 2014.[4][24]
