I had one in my FC somehow the pin got pulled. You can guess what happened next. It looked like a scene from a cheach and chong movie.

You just reminded me I need to go to Home Depot and get me another $10 extinguisher.

Or maybe I'll go to the speed shop and get a $50 one. J/K

Nah, go the full on-board system.......a snip at $1K

I used my big tinguisher in a 2 day road event last year, to help a 'fellow competitor' who had a bay fire & we were the next car along.........................SOB refused to pay for the refill!!! Next day my somewhat short tempered team-mate emptied my freshly filled unit again.....into his car! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

Nuttin to see here, move along.....

"Never had a fire, but i'm ready for one..." CHEERS!

Those injector seals get very hard and brittle. I replaced mine when I swapped them after I noticed how sloppy the new injectors went in.

But I carry a fire extingusher also https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png
