description: I DROVEFOR A SHORT TIME, LESS THAN A 10 MILE DISTANCE, THEN PULLED INTO A FRIENDS DRIVEWAY. WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN PARK I NOTICED SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD, SO I OPENED THE HOOD, AND THERE WERE FLAMES COMING FROM THE FRONT OF MY ENGINE. SO I PUT THE HOOD DOWN, BUT DID NOT CLOSE IT WHILE I GRABBED THE FIRE EXTINGUISHER. WHEN I OPENED THE HOOD THE FLAMES HAD TRIPLED, IN A MATTER OF SECONDS, CONSUMING THE MORE THAN HALF OF THE FRONT OF THE ENGINE. I WAS ABLE TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE WITHOUT CALLING THE FIRE DEPT. AND WITHOUT CAUSING ANY DAMAGE TO THE GARAGE IT WAS PARKED IN FRONT OF.
