You might want to get the extinguisher mess cleaned up soon. If you've ever inhaled that stuff, it's quite irritating. Not sure what it will do to the interior if left there for a while.

It is also very corrosive to electrical components also, needs to be cleaned ASAP.

Nice save.

You were seconds away from a visit by Lart.

mickster

Nice save! Glad you are okay and the car is only mildly damaged...

SeanR

Damn Randy, very sorry to hear about this. Looks like you did save it though.

Sorry to see it, but that is about the smallest engine fire I've seen.

Is that dry chemical (abc) or baking soda?

You are a 928 superhero.

RET

Glad that you weren't hurt and that the damage was not worse. Quick thinking and response.

S4ordie

Ugh! Really really sorry this happened. Hopefully the cause will be readily diagnosed and an easy fix. Same too with the paint and cosmetics.

Dwayne

What a bummer! It could have been a lot worse, though. Glad you acted quickly and avoided injury to yourself and saved the car.

That gives me the screamin' heebie jeebies. Now I have to get a fire extinguisher before I start my car. And I was doing so well with my Advance Autoparts addiction... three days sober...crap.

Good save, man. Sucks.

Randy:

Good job getting it out so quickly! You risked far worse (see below from another fuel fire locally - no extinguisher was nearby). The car pictured below is back on the streets, although it required extensive work.

Wow look like it could have been a lot worst if you had not been quick minded, great save Randy! With that said, seeing those fuel PSI gauges left on for daily diving has alway made me cringe.

928mac

Very quick thinking and a nice save which could have been very very bad.

This makes we very leery of my gauge.

Boat engine compartments have blower vents that clear the compartment
