Even if the napkin remnant didn't shred, it's pretty small.  I won't  
water the engine trying to wash it out. Without water testing a   
similar Burger King napkin, I'll assume the paper won't do much harm  
and for any signs of overheating.  Betcha the problem is over. Just a  
reminder to all: be alert when near a running engine!   -ron 65,66
