Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Fire extinguisher

We live near Portsmouth and the local paper carried a short report on a car 
fire and attached was a picture showing a TR4 with its bonnet up and the front 
was totally wrecked! The trouble is that modern fuels can literally eat the old 
fashioned petrol tubes that old cars and motorbikes are fitted with. Keep 
safeJon 2+2

did very little damage, and after fixing the hose, I was able to start the car 
and drive home.
