Re: Halon poisonous (?), etc

["Roger Brogren" <rbrogren@xxxx>]

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!
