Thanks for watching!
Wow man, glad to see you got it under control. God bless
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Glad you’re good man. That’s terrifying. Good to see the Eclipse is in one piece too.
It’s such a bad experience
My car burnt down 2 years ago definitely a scary experience glad you’re okay man great you got to save the car
I can’t imagine seeing your own car burn down..
Damn man, I'm glad you are ok and the car is ok. My 2g caught on fire also, but mine caught fire because of the clutch master cylinder leaking clutch/brake fluid on the back of the fuse box. I know the feeling man, it's a horrible feeling. I learned my lesson with the fire extinguishers also, mine didn't work either. You have to get them inspected and tested like once a year to be able to rely on them. Luckily I had just parked mine, and I ran in my house to grab something. Came back outside and open my car door, fire and smoke on the driver side floor board. I ended up fixing mine myself also, and that's actually how I got started working on DSMs. When I read the name of your video my heart sank, and those memories came back. I'm glad you and your car are all good.
Such a crappy experience man. Don’t wish it on any one
constant setbacks man. us eclispe guys just can’t catch a break
Part of the game. As long as you don’t give up
What amazes me and inspires me is that you never give up. Nothing steers you away from finishing or even fixing what went wrong. That’s amazing. Glad you’re safe and that your car is still there.
Sticking it till the end
Never apologize for not showing us you saving your car from a fire. That is content I do not want to see. Glad you saved it and your good.
🙏🏻
I have owned 7 DSMs in my life time now that I'm older looking back they are still my favorite cars but God damn I do not miss working on them!
😂
mind working on mine lol. been working on replacing the head gasket. pain in my ass.
It's always tough after a major problem to do that first test drive. Glad it got fixed man!
I was super nervous driving it again
This is what I mean man, this is just something that is amazing to know that you were worried and you always put something in front of you to save what you love, and you just never give up, and its amazing, glad you are fine bro, can't lose one like you
It all happened so fast! I’m just glad I was able to stop it
@@MiguelDsm Dude I was too, if I saw something on Insta about you losing any of your cars, I am gonna be super upset
I’m sorry to hear but glad you and the car are safe if you don’t mind me asking what go pro mount do you use the mouth piece one I use isn’t steady ty keep it up
Much Love BRO not a lot of people understand the love we have for our DSM will die with our cars lol. DSM LIFE. Keep pushing forward bro... The Beast Lives On!!!..
Facts bro! 🤘🏼
YOU NEED TO ADD A INLINE FUSE!!! When I put my battery in the trunk of my Evo, I installed a fuse breaker. You got blessed on this one. Happy to see you ok.
Thanks for the info
Dont apologize for not gettin that on camera lol..glad the car is safe man and you as well
Thanks for understanding!
I'm glad you are ok and your amazing car man 🙏
Thank you Ernesto 🙏🏻
Glad the eclipse is made it. It would’ve been a shame for that dsm to be gone by far my favorite dsm.
I can’t even imagine that
Glad you saved it. Can’t believe the extinguisher 🧯 didn’t work ! You don’t have to apologize for not recording the fire bro .. did the right thing
Don’t apologize to us lol. You save the dream car first worry about us second. Glad it wasn’t too bad!
Thank your for understanding. Could have been bad
Man Miguel you deal with a lot man but you always stay positive. Ill never forget all the nights my 2G left me stranded, gives me flashbacks. I'm just glad your okay and the car did not suffer too much damage. You live and learn brotha !!
Part of the game! As long as we learn from it
This is funny and sad at the same time. My dad owns a 1995 gsx and in 2001, he had the exact fire outbreak in the hood. He also had to use coolant and dirt to get the fire out! He still has the same DSM...over 22 years now! Good luck and don't give up.
Brother, at least your okay and you were able to act fast. Glad to read and see you’re safe.
Thankful man
Also, I HIGHLY suggest you install a breaker on the main power cable so if there is a short down the road, it will jump the breaker hopefully before starting a fire.
It’s on the list. Many people have been mentioning it
Glad the Eclipse and more importantly you are ok this DSM is what going to inspire the next generation fast and the furious and need for speed made me love it and now you are going to inspire some new owners
Hopefully man 🙏🏻
Glad you’re ok man. Also glad the car survived. Deron is the man. Only guy I trust with my cars
That’s Rudy! It happened before the event this last weekend
Holy sh*t man so glad your ok !
Thanks Joshua!
Glad you and your are safe. I would literally cry if your car gets burned down. Stay safe. Hope no more scary moments like this would happen again.🙏🙏🙏
Do you have ground loops?
Multiple grounds on the motor that’ runs from the back battery.
Don’t use straight positive wire running to the starter and alternator, and fuse box from the battery
I know the feeling bro it's terrifying and the adrenaline hits, I went through the exact same experience with my eclipse. It caught fire due to a slightly bare cable touching the chassis and I stopped the fire with a gallon of coolant cause my shirt didint work. Thought for certain my car was gone. I'm glad you and your car are good bro. Keep at it, she's a beauty!
I know how you felt! Got super lucky with the coolant
Wholly crap glad you saved yourself and the car I could tell just by looking at your face and hearing your voice that if that car would have burned up it wouldn't hurt you inside deeply so I'm glad all turned out well
It could have been soo bad
Brother, no need to apologize for not recording the fire. You did what anyone would do in that situation 👏, glad you’re ok. Health is wealth brother 👍. Also, damn those tow trucks in cali take a minute to pull up smh 🤦♂️
Health is wealth 🙏🏻
So glad you and your car are good bro!
Thank you Brian 🙏🏻
Glad you and your car are OK miguel. Been watching you since you started the build.
Quick reaction on your end and glad that the damage wasn't major. Good thing you're okay as well! Take care and much blessings! 🙏
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Now im having second thought coz i have battery relocated at the back as well on my mitsubishi mirage asti with 4g92 dohc mivec swap. Good thing is we used 0 gauge wire for the power. And the cables from alternator still pass through the fuse box. So hopefully everything is good. Fire extinguisher is a must specially if we do wire tuck and relocate our battery. Stay safe bro and more horse power!!!
Glad your good man !! Hopefully that never ever happens again to your car man! Your totally right about doing things right the first time cause if not than shit will come back at you and bite back . Iv learned my lessons before ha
I hope so too man. It was crappy
Glad you’re safe brotha! Lesson learned for sure !
My heart sank when I read the video heading 😔. Glad you and the car are all good mate.
Thank you Cameron 🙏🏻
Dude starts off the video like I’m on the wrong website with that heavy breathing and that money shot lol 😂 all jokes aside atleast everything good 🤙
My bad 😅
Bro!
Dont even worry about recording while in a situation like that
No need to apologize
We're happy you're not hurt and the DSM is running strong
Thanks for understanding
I'm glad that you were able to put that fire out before any damage was done and you shouldn't be worried about not filming it while it was on fire you did the right thing worry about your car first.
I felt bad for not filming it. I wasn’t sure if I was gonna be able to save it
But you did because you didn't think you acted that's awesome some people sit there and panic and those few seconds that they took panicking and not acting their car goes up and flames but that wasn't you good job man
I recommend getting AAA- tow truck always makes it to me in less then 30 minutes. Can get a policy from 60-100$ a year. Wish you luck
Good to know
Hope you're doing okay fam I support you no matter what!!!
The important part is that your safe man & the car is safe man🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
My brother was working on my legacy and it caught on fire because of the injectors missing the orings luckily only the engine harness and maf sensor melted so i had to get new ones im glad it didnt burn to the ground 😬☹and im glad yours didnt either 👍
Glad your okay bro I hope the best for you and the car bro 🙏 be strong brother 🙏
Thank you jovanni 🙏🏻
Get in contact with that extinguisher manufacturer! Smart choice not to grab the camera, I'm sure all of us can agree that was the best move to make to take care of the situation ASAP. Glad you're both okay 👌
Didn’t have time to think just act
My 4g63t swapped galant caught fire at the passenger side carpet due to the fuel pump relays heating up the carpet... water saved it
Sheeeshh man
Damn that sucks like just imagine if it actually caught on fire and you couldn’t do anything about. Glade ur good G🙏🏼
Thanks Erik!
Losing a car due to a fire is the worst!! I have lost my first evo to a fire and still to this day it crushes me.
Man. So glad you were able to save it.

When I Saw The Title I Thought

Just Glad The Car Got Saved!

@@MiguelDsm just glad all is well now.
Glad your car and you are still here🙏
What a beautiful spaceship, greetings from Argentina
i'm glad you and your car are ok and i was wondering why is your car battery mounted in the trunk?
It was routed back there to make more space in the engine bay
Glad you’re okay man!!
Thank you 🙏🏻
Ooo Bisimoto. Hoping to get my Fit tuned by Bisi once he opens for tuning again.
Glad your okay bro 🙏🏻
Thank you
Head up bro, soon the eclipse will be running at 💯. Also it’s good that your safe. 🙏
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hey bro! Glad to see you and the legendary eclipse are OK! I have a question regarding your gauges that are mounted, specifically the ones where your heat vents are located, where did you get the bezel kit for this? Ive added a new oil pressure gauge and would like to mount at one of the vents, also how does the electrical hold up to any heat that may still come through the vent? Or did you completely block it off? Thanks for your help from a Canadian dsmer!
Yoooo... glad you and Bae got out unhurt. Yeah bro it's a good lesson to learn but I know it can be scary.
Glad u ok bro don't wish to see my car go away I want to keep mine with me till I die eclipse is my childhood dream 😢
Same man
Hope you’re good bro
Im good man. Thank you
I am so happy you are ok you and your car
🙏🏻
🙏
Jesus that crazy dude good thing it survived again
My first bike I ever bought, first day out with it was heading to the gas station half a mile down the road from my apartments and a lightbulb blew up and caught on fire, burned my gloves and hands trying to turn it off.
Tldr: first bike got totaled within 2 minutes of riding
man seems scary to go through that w ur car. hope ur good and u best of luck fixing her.
Shes all good now ☝🏼
Need a fusible link on the positive wire
Heard it three times already. It’s on the list lol
Que bueno que no paso a mayores Miguel, un consejo cuando haya cambio de batería hay que hacer el cálculo de carga correcto para elegir bien el tipo de cable para evitar eso tipo de situaciones bro pero al final todo salió bien saludos y cuídate bro
Gracias a Dios estás bien , pronto el eclipse estará en pie🙏
Thank god your ok most important part bro
Thanks Jhon!
Glad you didn’t grab the camera, putting out the fire was definitely priority #1!
Glad you're ok bud. I know it's your baby, but your life always more important.
Always. Got super lucky
Keep your cool man! You did what you had to. Make sure when you get another extinguisher you take it yearly to your fire department to have it inspected. 😉👍🏻
Learned my lesson
I'm glad this car is okay an ur okay bro, but why does it whistle when u shift?
Really glad everything turned out okay!
Thank you! Super grateful
Dang that’s unfortunate for the car. Glad you’re ok sir! That’s some scary stuff
Thank you Anthony
Good thing your ok
Thanks Ed
Super glad you are good just a plus that the car also are🙏
Thank you Benjamin
Phew I believe that was a scary experience. Luckily you saved it. I always say do it right the 1st time, Try to live by it. May take more time and money but well more worth it.. :) Getting the fire on camera is the last of the worries man, fuck that. Glad it ended well!
Pretty much a shitty situation, pretty much could of been really bad, Pretty much clean it up and make it better than before...Pretty much ..... all jokes aside Miguel I'm glad you're alright and you were able to save your hard work and pride and joy. Lesson learned, come back stronger than before!... oh and that fire extinguisher only had 1 job and failed miserably lol.. keep your head up bro
Thank god it didnt caught completly on fire and you are Fine miguel..
Agreed man. Could have been bad
Glad you were able to save the car, god bless 🙏
minor setback but the comeback is gonna be lovely
Glad everything worked out bro 🔥
Thank you 🙏🏻
A good hack for anyone who is relocating the battery to the back is going and finding at a junk yard a BMW and taking that wiring and set up from that has never failed me !!!
Damn This 2020 Year is straight Shit , Good that your okay MIguel
