    It's the fumes which ignite first then the petrol/ diesel chaches fire

      Quite right and when contained like in the combustion chamber of an engine the fumes reach very high levels and ignite very easily.
      I suspect you would have a pretty hard time getting it to ignite in open air with a cigarette though.

        Olive oil is amazing stuff and also good to nourish hair and scalp.
        If your hair is dry and brittle, pour some olive oil on it, rub in well, leave it for 20 minutes or so then rinse off well.
        Repeat every second day for a week and you will be amazed at the results.
        Just make sure you wash it off properly or you'll be walking around smelling like a salad. :)

          My old Dad used to use O.Oil and vinegar as a suntan lotion when he was gardening....that was until he mistook the O.Oil for Garlic Oil....keep the flies away though:doh:

                  Lavender oil - that is the ticket for burns.

                  Years ago, a friend's wife (deceased now, sadly) advised lavender oil for burns and scalds, when I burnt myself quite badly - it works, and works quickly too; she was trained in health foods and alternative medicines, besides being one of the loveliest people you could choose to meet.

                            I do believe @"M" is suggesting that Zigs has been a bit of a plonker.....
