A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

As I was accelerating from a traffic light, I heard a pop and lost all power to car. I rolled over to side of street, while noticing smoke coming from engine compartment on passenger side. Opened hood and saw a fire by engine wall. I had a couple of bottles of water with me. I pored water on fire and after one minute distinguested the fire.
