One day I was power-washing the engine bay of a diesel Vanagon I owned at the time. I had taped a plastic bag over the intake to keep water out. I needed to move the van to get better reach with the hose, so I started it up and moved it without any trouble. I remembered the bag afterwards. Inspection showed that the engine had simply sucked the bag into the air horn until it popped.
