Well, I was half ******, half amused, but my friend decided to light my cylinder on fire after he dumped the contents of the fuel rails in them accidentally. Anyway, hopefully no long term damage came from this, but it wasn't on fire for more than ten seconds...

And then if that isn't enough he tries to blow it out while rotating the engine and blows out burning chunks of head gasket.

And subsequently lights my wiring harness, that was sitting there minding it's own business I would like to add, on fire after a chunk of burning gasket lands on it. Now I have five little forest fires going on in my brother's garage, one on my tranny, just to add insult to injury. I am going to write a book about this rebuild. sigh

Upon further review, it appears that we narrowly missed a really entertaining night. Is that a propane tank? Man, we are doomed. :bonk:

:omg: CANCEL YOUR FRIENDSHIP AND FIND A NEW ONE!

In the long run, you might be better off financially to buy this guy a cruise around the world sailing immediately.

This is just another event in a long, long line of really stupid mistakes (well, this is the most harmless by far) in my Odyssey. It was the funniest and made the best pictures though.

Smithsil: it's the easiest procedure to date. Easier than removing a tire even!
