Once I was trying to get a 100 started. The shut-off valve was dripping gas onto the bell housing, I guess the fumes had filled the housing. It had oil all over it. When I pulled the starter, it sparked, and I'd guarantee it was heard more than a mile away. Blew me down, blew all the leaves on the ground away down to the dirt. Didn't catch on fire but smoked like it would for a while. Couldn't tell that it hurt the tractor and I have used it since, but when I first looked back toward that tractor through the smoke, I was expecting to see more than one piece. Took a little bit to even figure out what happened. Very funny later, but still I gained much respect for leaking gas.
