You have to be very careful with burnt out electronics on older vehicles, I can't remember the name of the acid residue formed but it can enter unnoticed through your skin and eat into the bone with amputation being the only option.

Just as well you pulled the crank out, the bearing looks fucked.

You might remember the geo in Mossie Park? that dived into his pool after a spill. Didn't work, it absorbs immediately through skin.
