But we do know that news articles tend to be devoid of correct technical facts concerning vehicles, guns, etc.

That said, carburetor, throttle body, whatever, engine still needs oxygen. Whether it was starved by the smoke or actually clogged by ash, the net result is no more ignition.

Didn't even think to look at the door, but you are correct purp. I wouldn't wanna be responsible for that though.... Just glad no one was hurt and... it wasn't a dodge lol
