Isn't there a saying, almost only counts with hand grenades and napalm?

There are many parts, rubber tracks, engine electrical system, fuel , to a tank that can burn, I'm sure napalm would be devastating and the crew asphyxiated.

In the Book T-34-85 vs. M26 Pershing,by Steven Zaloga (Osprey PUblishing) an intelligence report in the Korean war analyzed 239 knocked out T-34 tanks. Of this group, 102 were knocked out by aircraft, and 60% of the tanks knocked out by planes were destroyed by napalm. (page 75)
