~HELP!~ My Pathfinder caught fire & it's my only vehicle...
SkiBumBrian replied to RobynInOK's topic in General Forums
^^ I concur. Getting the parts at a pick-n-pull would be my avenue but I have the tools and enough knowledge to get it done, could probably walk out the door for 50-75 bucks. On the other hand, your mechanic is going to use new, guaranteed parts as Slart said. Just lock him down on a price if that is the way you are going to go. Don't let him nickel and dime you to death during the process. It seems he is being square with you so far, just remember that quote was for parts only, not his labor, etc. the bill could be pushing 1500 bucks before it is all over. -

Good going, Robyn! I am sure the only damage is the burnt components and should be fairly simple to rectify. Make sure he determines where the fire originated and see that the issue is solved. -
Kudos, B. Not only your savvy on getting it running but on your willingness to do so. Often ones we call friends become "busy" when their help is needed. The world would be a much nicer place if we all had more empathy and compassion for others in need.

Robyn, better pictures would help locate the cause but probably a leak in the fuel rail somewhere. Replacing the torched parts will probably fix the issue but not cost effective at a shop and certainly not at the stealership. Hopefully a fellow forum member with mechanical abilities will chime in and give you a hand. Pick and Pull can be a great asset in times like these... Did you smell fuel at any time before it burnt? Usually a fuel rail leak will give you a faint gas smell at times, mine was only at start up and when the engine was cold was was leaking at the hose coupler. -
