Yep definitely get a fire extinguisher in there. My truck has been on fire 3 times. The first time was the only time that I didn't have an extinguisher available. Luckily, someone else came up and dumped their gatorade on it to put it out. I won't drive without an extinguisher now.

My sisters ex boyfriend was helping me work on my blazer once and the carb caught on fire. We had a towel he could have smothered it with but instead he starts throwing handfuls of sand at the carb.

I woulda rather seen him waste a beer on it.
LMFAO....
