This happened to a guy across the street from me in Georgia. It was late, wife going to bed, I was talking to her when
we heard a thud. I commented that it was one of the girls rolling into the wall while sleeping, she didn't agree. I was going 
back outside to my shop when I saw a huge bush in flames next to the carport of this guys house. I went over to see if I
could help...vacuum in pieces with hose still Duck Taped to the fuel line... While it wasn't nice I had to laugh as I walked 
back home...

    Interesting phenomena when vacuuming out a gas tank with a shop vac.  The fumes go thru the vacuum hose, thru the motor and shoot flames out the back.   BTDT
