Years ago I had just finished building a 74 Bronco, complete with all the California smog equipment. Little rubber hoses running everywhere. I took the rig for it's shake down run around town. It stalled at a light. It was on fire! I had no extinguisher. Someone finally put it out with a regular chemical agent extinguisher.
I towed it back to the shop and threw a tarp over it in disgust. My months of tedious work down the drain. It looked like we threw a 10 lb. bag of flour over the previously spotless engine compartment. That's when I learned to appreciate and carry clean agent fire extinguishers. Jim Creel
