Re: [DMCForum] Re: Nitrous Injection

Of all the cars I seen burn you get about 5 little explosions.  One if 
the gas tank didn't split, when it gets hot enough it does pop and 
usually spill flaming gas all over the ground.  Then you sometimes get 
the tires popping and the AC system.

Most of the auto fires I have been involved with were due to welding in 
a greasy area.  And one was cause the battery hold down broke and the 00 
gage wire melted.  But they have all cause little or no damage and were 
fairly easy to put out with the correct extinguisher.
