Oh, And did I mention that he had a cooler full of mostly melted ice is because he had already drunk all the beer  ?

Had lots of guesses, but yours may be the closest

Probably was caused when the plastic fuel filter mounted in the engine 
compartment with rubber hoses started leaking and the electric fuel pump 
Smitty had mounted next to the battery just kept feeding it and ignition was 
when the speaker wire he was using to power it shorted out at the wire nut 
connections, could also have been a bad connection at the Pertronics too.

                                     Right Smitty ?
