Flames!! WTF
« on: October 26, 2009, 05:31:42 pm »
Been in London all weekend and not with my car.

Got home last night, woke up this morning and have no battery  left as id left the CD player on  :rolleye: :signLOL:

Anyways, just jump started it now, gave it a big rev, and BANG! (i was round the back of the car, brother in drivers seat) a blue flame came out of the left pipe about half a foot long!! followed by some black smoke!?  :confused:

Should i be worried or was it just excess petrol or something, it was a very very loud bang!

car is running fine now, looked cool as fooook aswell, just really wondering if i should be worried.

joe you crazy fool (BA stylee..)
modern catalytic converter engines should never be 'bump started'  :signLOL:
usually fries the cat with all the unburnt fuel igniting over it.

in all seriousness prob just fine  :happy2: just taken 8 lives out of the cat  :laugh:

I reckon an exhaust flamer kit would appeal to you  :grin:

Doesn't take more than a couple of them to completely destroy a cat.. The internals are pretty delicate.. They can cope with huge EGT's but not neat fuel..

Not as bad as people running WOT boxes on catted exhausts though ha..
