Whilst flying along in IMC, had a fuel pressure gauge rupture on me spraying several litres of raw avgas all over me and the cockpit. Covered in Avgas I had to turn around and fly half an hour back home blinded and with my balls on fire.

For sure!

Yeah, that was lucky. Doubt the balls would've been altogether raw after being on fire for half an hour all the way home!
