Advice for today: BUY A FIRE EXTINGUISHER FOR YOU CAR!
I went and started my 79 Ford truck today and noticed black smoke rolling from under the hood,I pop it open & the engine is ON FIRE! there is no water or phone where I keep it. HOLY SHIT,WHAT TO DO?,I have an extinguisher in my car,I hit the button and it DOESN'T WORK! OH NO! THE FIRE IS GETTING BIGGER! I tried slapping it with an old blanket, NO GOOD! I luckily left a cooler in my car that had some water & a couple of can drinks in it, I poured that on it and with that and several huffs I got the fire out! SHIT!
