car on fire
**** my manafold caught on fire. It didn't look like it messed anything up. All of my dash lights are on(check engine, ect.) and i broke my fan belt and alternater. Is that really bad or can i still drive it 20 miles home with a new belt?

I think I smell a leaking fuel pulsation dampener as the cause of the fire.

WHAT EVER the cause fix it before driving any more.
