Yes it can and it could be either the fuel pump or the carb. Many years ago i was working at a Ford dealership and we got in a new T bird that was backed on the car carrier with the nose down . It was one of the first T birds with a 429 When the truck driver went to start the car to drive it off it would not start , driver comes in to my area and asked if we had a battery charger as he thought it was a dead battery from maybe a interior lite left on . I told him go see the service manager and he would get the lot boy to come and jump start it . The service manager called for the lot boy and he got the 68 Bronco we had for our lot dog and it had a Goodall start pack . They opened the hood and hooked up the startall and when the driver hit the key all we heard was a huge explosion and a fire ball and the T bird bronco and the car below and the back end of the trailer on fire . It blew the oil pan and both valve covers off that 429 . She was crispy crittered to bad to tell where the problem was as anything made from alum. was just a glob . The lot boy suffered second degree burns and the driver was not hurt .Good thing we were only a half mile from the fire dept. We used every fire extinguisher we had and were not gaining on it.So you lucked out with it not blowing up on you .
