    Brake fluid has a relatively low flash point. Nick a brake line then super heat the rotors with excessive brake use and :bananadead:.

    High pressure fuel pump leak gone wrong. There was a few cases here on TW where people came out to small gasoline puddles in their driveway. It was only a matter of time.


    I HIGHLY doubt (knowing the area and these people) the vol firefighters could even tell a brake line from a cheeseburger anyway.
