exactly! and doubly especially so if theres a gas fired water heater in
the garage the van is in.

i fried the engine bay of an 81 mazda 626 many years ago because it had
a carb leak and i pushed it into the garage to work on it. once the
water heater 15 feet away kicked in, the fumes from the small puddle on
the ground instantanously combusted.
