ARCHIVE Wits’ End Fire Extinguisher Mount and Locking Lid

[SoCal_80]

I am in.

 

[sorich]

Very interested.

 

[JAntosch]

Looks slick, quite interested as well. Any reason it couldn't be used with H3R NB425 mount?

LockBox is unlikely. Its such a small demand and there are three different consoles which makes development a nightmare.

Take a poll of which console is the most prevalent, and then just make it for the 98-02 LC.

Who said it couldn’t?

Haha! That one is actually the less complicated of them.

 

[ZREM]

Looks awesome, looking forward to it!

I am totally behind that!

Very neat. I am definitely interested in one!



Fuel vapor issues?

At high altitudes, especially with old charcoal cannisters, you can notice fuel vapors and it is recommended to slowly vent these at those altitudes. Someone recently lost their 100 to fire due to these vapors.

How does one properly "vent" while the fuel is boiling up?

Open gas cap

Open gas cap

Well, I guess I had that coming. I suppose it's a "grab some gloves and get it done" kind of situation.

 

[brizzle]

I am in too!

I’ve never seen it boil up to where it’d splash out on you. Just crack the cap and let it vent.

It wasn’t meant to be sarcastic. Fuel will boil and it has to go somewhere because it builds pressure. Slowly venting via the cap helps to lower the pressure but that pressure also raises the boiling point of the gas. Removing that pressure quick can cause fuel to boil more. Slowly venting is key and a properly working evap system is supposed to do that.

Happened to me

It was my 80 but same issue.

 

[yotasavg]

Got it, thanks for the replies @DirtDawg and @NLXTACY, knew you weren't being sarcastic but I couldn't think of a better way to ask the question!

 

[NLXTACY]

Test fitting a mock-up and making a few changes before sending these out to production.

It’s not any fun...

No thank you
