CO2 blast under the hood in case of fire. The line goes thru the floor and tees off to either side of the engine. One side terminates where my fuel lines pass thru the frame up to the TBI and the other ends near the alternator and all my wiring. I figure those are the most likely starting places of a fire. CO2 will kill the fire and the engine without hurting anything or leaving a chemical residue. I had a fire once in another truck (my first: a '79 K5). I was back on the road in 30 minutes because folks stopped by with an extinguisher. I guess I'm a little paranoid after that. I'd hate to have a car-B-Q with the Fox!
