Who let this bird brain even touch a tool!

Why would you even try to start an engine before it's even dropped into a car.

WHY would you even try to turn it on after it's caught on fire.

That was a sting of bad decisions. I especially like the last part where he decided to spray water directly into the carburetor, which I would guess started a whole new chain of issues to be found weeks later.

928 & miata owners are pretty much the same iq, that's the reason behind all 928 car fires.

That burn is sad, but the video is pretty funny. My favorite part is when he tries to blow out the fire - he's really lucky it didn't burn his face.
