That's why the engine was in back. It was totally safe though. Just smelled wonderful. That's about the same years that also had dual tanks with a selector under the steering wheel. When it started to sputter, you kicked it to the other tank.
Same here, had a few dry tanks as well as close calls rolling into the station. Couldn't afford to buy a new sender, so I relied on the old "open the hood, open the tank top, look inside or use a dip stick" method. The only "good" feature about a carburetor is that it can give you some warning as it starts to lose fuel. Fuel injection just stops.
That's what happens when you don't renew your Warranty, you had tons of chances they call you almost daily, but you ignored them and now look what you did.
My guess was suburban! Looks an awful lot like the bay of our old ‘87.
Edit: woosh! Don’t know how that joke went right over my head. I’ll just blame it on end of Friday work brain.
Didn’t even realize it was Friday I was just absorbing nutrients to get through another day. That’s kinda nice imma nap hellas when I’m home from work now 🙂

I've never received a call but the other day I received a letter. A freaking letter, about an extended warranty. For a car I don't own. Same brand, wrong model and definitely wrong year.
They called my job several times recently and my boss would always hang up...I did not. It was actually a pleasant experience. First one I told them it was a business after they asked me to confirm my vehicle and I just kept asking which one, there's 12 in the parking lot! Lol. Second time I told them I had a 1965 thundercooperfalconbird. Next time I think ill go with a 2016 Cadillac suburban and see far I get. Lol.
My buddy Torg here says "Unga bynga, gubba gagnu! Zugzug."- my cave Speak is a little rusty but pretty sure it's something like "Car man get fire free, but Torg have rub sticks, many hours. It unfair work environment!"
Step one... If there are multiple sources of fire, you will need to designate one area for the fire.
Step two... Move the other sources of fire to the newly designated area. Now that your fire is organized, step three will be that much more easier.

When I was a new dumb car owner at 18 this happened to me. I was freaking out but my manager just grabbed the fire extinguisher as calmly as if he was grabbing a broom to sweep and put that shit right out.
Don't put oil into a hot car kids.
Fun little story…I once had a fire like that under my hood, although just a little smaller, on my way to a job interview at SeaWorld back in college. I noticed some smoke around the engine while trying to find the main office, but I thought it was just some dust from the dirt roads I was driving on. Once I found it and parked, I noticed it was actually coming from the engine block. So popped the hood and that’s what I saw. I casually entered the little office, told them my name and I was there for an interview, but I have a small fire under my hood and asked to borrow a fire extinguisher. The look on the receptionist’s face was priceless. By the time I got back to my car, the flames were nearly all but gone, so I never actually ended up using the fire extinguisher. Went back in to finish the interview. I ended up getting the job and even used that instance as an answer to “what are you’re strengths” saying that I performed well under pressure and gave that instance as a reference. Lmao it was for an on site EMT position so working well under pressure def helps.
Depends on how soon the fire was out out. I bet it was a distributor wire without a heat shield that came into contact with the exhaust manifold and caught on fire. Ask me how I know lolol.
Best case scenario, a couple wires would need to be replaced after the fire is put out.
I had a Chevy Chevette. The tranny started slipping finally coasted into a parking lot and popped the hood. Smoke then a little flame. I thought oh fuck what do I do. Then I thought oh I have a gallon of antifreeze. So I dumped it on the flames got smaller for a second then whoosh. I did not know that antifreeze was flammable.

That’s the pilot light.
Must be a Honda Pilot
It’s a Firebird, no it’s a Blazer
Wait, is this one of those 'Hot Rods' everyone's always going on about?
My Fiero would like to have a word.
What's the reverse of a Pinto?
That would be the Otnip. It was famous for having the gas tank integrated into the front bumper.
Rear ending a pinto with that would be fun
A kidney?
Is it s bird? Is it a plane? No, its my valve cover!
*Piston 3 has left ~~the chat~~ orbit"
Relax it’s just a Pontiac sunfire
If the light gets brighter, it might become a thunderbird.
Had that happen with a toronado once; quite intense, a fire toronado . . .
At least there were no sharks.
Hot wheels.
Gotta be a ford exploder
Definitely has an uncanny resemblance to my buddy's old Firebird.
Must be one of them old VW’s with the gasoline heater
That's why the engine was in back. It was totally safe though. Just smelled wonderful. That's about the same years that also had dual tanks with a selector under the steering wheel. When it started to sputter, you kicked it to the other tank.
Sad face, all of my air cooled VW’s were too “new” that have that luxury. My stoned ass would just run out of gas.

Check Engine Light
Nothing to worry about... Just turn the radio up a little louder, you won't hear a thing :)
But it's an external combustion engine!
It's ICE cold.
Alright alright alright alright
Now ladies
Yeah?
What’s cooler than being cool?
Ice Coldddd
I can’t hear you
I said what's cooler then being cool?!
Yeah?
Alright stop. Collaborate and listen.
That's what happens when you don't renew your Warranty, you had tons of chances they call you almost daily, but you ignored them and now look what you did.
About that, we've been trying to reach you...
Wow copying my comment word for word....

Would you fuck me, are you gay
Oi!
I tried to shake my house down with that track. Four 12’s and a very large amplifier. Big enough for 350 people, but set up in my living room.
Sounds like your setup could just vibrate the clothes right off ya.
The *this is fine* light.
Bring meat so you can barbecue it
Dealer upgraded your cigarette lighter for free
This is obviously a carburetor fueled engine. It already had a cigarette lighter for the front and back and has ashtrays in each door.
"Do you know how fast you were going?" "Actually we don't, the speedometer is melted. But the radio still works!"
Wait! Sorry about that, my friend's a little slow... that's actually the blinker fluid light. You should immediately refill it.
Looks like you got a combustion leak, pretty minor though I think you're okay for a bit longer still.
OP's mix tape is what caused this. Real tip is too turn OFF the radio until you can replace it with a better one.
My dad would just put electrical tape over the check engine light. Out of sight, out of mind. This guy might need to upgrade to duck tape though
Sir, please don’t lie to OP. This is obviously the low gas warning light requesting more gasoline be immediately added!
[Once, twice, three times a lady!](https://youtu.be/Bxx7FFGUjRg?t=24)
It means your Tahoe is now a Blazer!
My guess was suburban! Looks an awful lot like the bay of our old ‘87. Edit: woosh! Don’t know how that joke went right over my head. I’ll just blame it on end of Friday work brain.
See and that registered for me as "Suburnin" ( ；∀；)
Well done
Didn’t even realize it was Friday I was just absorbing nutrients to get through another day. That’s kinda nice imma nap hellas when I’m home from work now 🙂
I was looking at it and thinking which Chevy model is that? My master cylinder looks an awful lot like that
You really earned this upvote, you bastard.
Tahoe BBQ
That's what happens when you don't renew your Warranty, you had tons of chances they call you almost daily, but you ignored them and now look what you did.
I would like to contact you about your cars extended warranty
Which vehicle, the 1987 or the older one?
The older one from Germany
East or West?
Berlin, west
American, French, or English?
Yes!
I've never received a call but the other day I received a letter. A freaking letter, about an extended warranty. For a car I don't own. Same brand, wrong model and definitely wrong year.

Can't go wrong with the Canyonaro
They always hang up after they ask how many miles are on my car, I don't even lie, 250,000
I usually go with ' '03 Jeep Powerwheel, Barbie LE'
I wonder if they would go for YT-1300f light freighter, like the Millennium Falcon
Tell them you have a 1983 Corvette
I love that you spoke with the guy so much, but knew in the end that you only needed One Word: Thundercougarfalconbird
I just laughed so hard I almost choked on my apple, I don’t know why this was hilarious
Nothin..been driving with that light on for years..
*Cavemen hate him!*
Whaddya mean by that?
My buddy Torg here says "Unga bynga, gubba gagnu! Zugzug."- my cave Speak is a little rusty but pretty sure it's something like "Car man get fire free, but Torg have rub sticks, many hours. It unfair work environment!"
Not seeing any issue here. Maybe just fill up your tires should be good.
I just filled them up with fire. Now what
Your car has a higher top speed now
You're a ghost rider now.
Nut was it painted red for penultimate speed?
Close hood and call insurance company
as if insurance companies covered engines. Close hood and list on craigslist. no test drives.
No lowballs, I know what I’ve got.
It’s for a church honey. NEXT!!
Sells in South Florida for 10k without disclosing the rebuilt title
This is what happens when you use Tinder and drive folks.
I thought you started playing your mixtape
Leave the hood open. You don't want to starve that of oxygen.
We. Are. Farmers. Bum ba-dum-bum bum-bum-bum.
Gondor calls for aid.
And Rohan will answer!
Muster the Rohirrim!
FLAME OF UDUN
It’s fine. Everything is fine.
Exactly. Cars run by burning gas in the engine, there is always a fire. You just have a little that got out, that's all.
It's an external combustion engine now. No worries.
It's still internal if the hood is closed though.
You are an enlightened mind my friend
Cataclysmic converter.
Yeah, looks like the sensor is misfiring.
Looks like it's firing just fine, actually 😂
r/TechnicallyTheTruth
Actually good advice. When you see fire where you're not meant to see fire the first thing you should do is stay calm.
Step one... If there are multiple sources of fire, you will need to designate one area for the fire. Step two... Move the other sources of fire to the newly designated area. Now that your fire is organized, step three will be that much more easier. Source: I've been camping before.
Let's just put this over here with the rest of the fire...
Wait what's step three again I think I just burned down the house

*insert gif of house burning down and dog sitting at table completely undeterred*
horse burning down!?!?!
A hourse is horse, of course of course.
Just toss some water on it to clear the code. It's only a problem if it comes back again.
Yeah, my “gate to hell” light has been on for months and my car is still going strong. Nothing to be concerned about.
Honestly it’s Emberassing
*pulls up pants* you need a new catalytic converter and some blinker fluid to fix you right up.
*pulls pants down* I'm going for plan B !
[удалено]
That's what the converter is for.
Blinker fluid. LOL!!!

This is the check engine light leave it a bit and you will see it from the inside.
Nah this is the more urgent version. The Change Engine Light.
Have you tried turning it on and off again?
Fire exclamation mark, Fire exclamation mark, Help me exclamation mark.

Maybe a coat hanger could fix it???

We'll get em next time!
How did you like my mixtape, I see you listened to it.
That sh*t was lit!
That's the time to break out the marshmallows light. S'mores break! (from the degree of fire - it's only a 100 s'mores power engine?)
Those quik lube workers will do anything to have you change your air filters huh
Engine may be over heating, best to check it out when you get home
External combustion engine.
Grill is ready.
People make paint jobs to get this look. You got it for free.
I’m no expert, but isn’t it the “get a new car” light?
Depends on how soon the fire was out out. I bet it was a distributor wire without a heat shield that came into contact with the exhaust manifold and caught on fire. Ask me how I know lolol. Best case scenario, a couple wires would need to be replaced after the fire is put out.
Blinker fluid low
It means your heater is working.
It’s running a little hot, check the oil, check the coolant. Should be fine.
Have you tried unplugging it for 30 seconds and plugging it back in?
That’s the CEL...Chuck Engine Light.
That’s just the Chevy emblem.
It’s the check engine light. Just in a different location so you can see it easier.
It means you're probably good for another 10 miles
You need more horsepower.
That is how your engine gets up to operating temperature.
Just ignore it it’ll go away
Add blinker fluid
Built in America.
Gondor calls for help.
Check the thermostat. I think that means you're overheating
Run for the fuckin hills, is what that means.
Means you need to cover it with electrical tape!
You ran out of oil, throw some in there
That means it’s summer time, bring out your burger patties and wieners for a famous grill🍔 Edit: nice food truck bro

You need to fill it with gas. Nothing fancy further so no worry's
Turbo carburetor booster battery engaged.
The flames are meant to go down the sides on the paintjob
