]Don't be so quick to judge... Sh*t sometimes happens to the best of us. If he is able to do a V8 swap into a Miata, I'm sure he has above average mechanical skills.[/QUOTE]
Even more he should of known better. The fuel lines were not connected but he was using a gas can on the top of the fender. It was close enough if something bad happened when starting to do what it did. I see the fire to the gas can started when he undid the fuel line and you can see the gas pouring out of the hose onto the floor. And what was the point to it start it then? No way to keep it cool, no exhaust etc. He must just wanted to hear it run. Again I do feel bad but please try to work safe. This is the same thing as of jacking up a car with a bumper jack and going under it without secondary support and it falls. I have too many friends with battle scars over stupid stuff. Yeah I have done my share too.
