neil tt Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Just sitting in the office and a car drives past with flames coming out from underneath. Pulls up just past the shop and starts running around like a madman, he lifts the bonnet and takes he t-shirt off and trys beating the flames out with his shirt. I run out of the shop, with the fire extinguisher and put it out, the fan had melted all over the engine, and it was the plastic that was burning. He did say thanks and it was a Toyota, if only a Corolla, thats my good deed for the day:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike_mcevoy Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 Lifting the bonnet on an engine fire is probably worse thing he could of done, but in a panic you forget these thing but at least you got it out for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
