1990 ls400 starter troubles
so I got the starter in and put everything together fired it up and a fire ball shot out from under the hood, i ran grabbed an extingisher and quickly put it out. not to bad only melted one connector. I pulled it apart again and found number eight fuel injector was leaking. this is what caused the fire, the o ring was cut even though it was brand new from lexus. my question is the fire retardant I sprayed on the motor is everywhere what is the best way to clean it all up?
p.s. after a new o ring put it together and fired right up, no fire issues i just have a white christmas under the hood
