When I was about 9, I found a derelict chassis in a field and decided to see if it would run. Being a clever lad I thought I would check for fuel . Unfortunately my method of looking in the tank with a match wasn't the best. Apparently the chassis had been there for several months with no fuel in it. It severely burnt my face. I learnt the hard way. When I ever have to repair tanks I now fill with water and light a wick above the cap to make sure the gasses are all gone. never had one "pop" since .
