Near Catalytic Converter Fire Observed.
Guys, I need help! I started my car after about 2 months and after about 10 minutes of warming up I noticed a reflection f fire on teh garage floor. I took teh car out of the gurage as fast as I could and drove it a little distance to extinguish the fire. The fire did extinguish but left me scared as a scardy cat. I am not a car guy please help. I did notice where I had parked the car there was a little bit of oil on the ground may be about 200 drops or more.
What should I do? Help Please!!!!!

yer just gonna have to get dirty and jack up the car and see if there looks like something like dry grass, a nest of some sort, a plastic bag or anything that could catch fire appears to have been touching the cat. the cat normally gets fairly warm and can ignite anything that can catch fire easily like fuel as Node said but you will have to do your own investigating as that is where i would start since it appears to have been the point that the issue came.

my car did that. when it flooded soo badly and had a **** ton of gasoline in the cat. there where flames shooting out at the gasket area.
lets just say, i didnt need to get straight pipes a couple months after. i still have pictures of randome debris that shot out of my exhaust.
