Final narrative
While prepping a push-boat to move to another location, employees filled both motors with 2-stroke oil and put the cowlings back on the motors. An employee went to start the motors. The port motor started but the starboard motor hesitated. The employee tried again; the starboard motor started up but fire shot out and fuel that leaked caught fire. One employee was hit by the flames, and sustained burns on the neck, left hand, and both legs.
