Be careful, guys. Blow down tubes are cheap insurance against this.

Unverified story is it's a car from Texas....claiming the temps got up to 107-108 and the bottle let go. A 20 dollar part would have saved the whole car.

That's scary. My truck said 106* yesterday evening around 5:30, so I believe it.

Very. I know we have several guys running bottles inside the cab...hopefully they'll go over their installs and put in the proper safety gear.

Damn. People need to have more respect for what compressed gas in a bottle can do. Always heard about horror stories about acetylene and propylene. Guess it's the same story with nos
