Jeep...

I understand Myth Busters. I can insure you my air filter in flames was/is not a myth nor urban legend.

I had the same thing happen to me with some *** in a silver Z28 except he said nothing and just laughed and revved the **** out of his engine as he went by.I flipped him off said a few colorful choice words and he kept going.

I didnt have the air filter problem i had a loose power wire from the alternator that came loose and grounded the system out at around 100mph that was some scarry **** the car died and as we all know with power steering its a bitch to turn with the motor off.But i called my pops and he came with a flatbed trailor and in a few minutes after it being home in the garage i had it back and running.
