Ooh! I have lots of advice to give! Don't fry bacon in the nude. Never trust an electrician with no eyebrows and toasters are orange inside for a reason. Don't stick your fingers in there. Seriously, like JKeaton asked, have you given it a tune up lately? Original spark plugs? Clean air filter? Pull your owners manual out and see what maintenance is due and start there. I personally change my plugs every 30,000 miles just so they don't fuse into the heads.A little extra expense but I feel it's worth it.
