Fire suppression systems
#7

Steve, in your experience, what would be a good way to protect from an "unsolicited" engine bay fire? My fear is driving down the road and a fuel or hydraulic line spray onto a hot surface while I am unaware. Do they even sell Halon systems anymore? I too am a believer in the Halon suppression systems however due to the "refrigerant" they use have been put on the blacklist. Either way, once a raging fire has begun it is nearly impossible for someone to get near an access door to stick a handheld extinguisher from the severe heat. Like you said, once fuel fed, it will end up being a total loss.
