thereis a marine company that makes an automatic extinguisher for engine compartments, it has a polymer line and when flames burn the line it ruptures releasing the powder foam whatever. Sea-Fire Marine - FT Stinger Series, FM-200 Fire Extinguishers

Well not saying I'm going to have any problems with my new fuel return system but there are a lot more parts and fittings. Better be safe than sorry. We need to get with that guy and find out where he bought his because I like the way it looks and the fitment..

Alright ladies and gents, I'm BACK!!! Been trying to sell my house for a few months now and now have a cash offer so I am now forced to get my car up and going Fast... It's crazy since my little vacay to Jamaica since I've been back everything just seems to flow perfectly..... It's funny what a week long of listening to Bob Marley does to you.

Don't forget the pot

Soon I will be refilling the coolant system and was considering doing a 75/25 water/antifreeze mix mainly due to fact that it really doesn't get that cold here. Anyone else running this mixture or close?

black_sedan · 06-15-2014, 03:52 PM

Should work fine. I've heard of guys up here that run the same mix with a bottle of water watter with no issues.

That was my goal. think I missed a little heavy on the antifreeze. we have very similar climates so go for it. Don't forget the water wetter

Looking good and hoping that it all works out in the end for you. I have been reading this thread and also the other one where the guy from FL blew his engine.
