so i know how we all enjoy a good fire, just not in our own car lol. so heres my fun last night. solenoid stuck open(thank god it didnt keep the motor spinning), caught fire..(should have took a picture of the flame) the heat melted my passenger pump solenoid wire and the ground wire as u can see from the 2nd to last picture..... then when i got the cables off the noids so they wouldnt hit the batteries, i used one to jump the front pump and fogot the damn screw arched on the end of the cable and hit my damn adex candle arching it on that and thus the results.. (sorry andy, but the bitch still works, ill have to send it to ya sometime lol)

oh and the noids are accurates before they got named accumax and they are 3 1/2 yrs old...

damn... well at least all you got to do is under $50... Could have been worse. I'll have to find the video of our prez and the SDZ fire brigade at a show.. Beer , 8 batts , 1 fire swisher and 6 noids later... :angry: :biggrin:
