I am not sure that Don is right. There were two types of Halon used for firefghting and one was NOT recommended in confined cockpits such a car or airplane. I don't recall the Halon numbers but a search on the web should answer that question. (Using your search engine, try: halon+fire+extinguishers and you will get reams of information.) Referring to DMC Joe's comment: I do not think the DeLorean is more prone to dash fires either, however a LOT of the electrical components are pretty rinky-dink! And unfused wiring is a hazard in ANY car. My question would be: How the heck do you get a fire extinguisher nozzle in under the dash? Or into the relay/fuse compartmnt for that matter, when flames may be licking your fingers and with acrid smoke filling your eyes and nose! (No, I am not paranoid about this but I believ in being prepared!) As far as Lucas wiring and components are concerned: Give me just about anything but! Roger
