I'm still suffering from Paranoid Maintenance Syndrome with six spare
Type IV engines.
I was just considering a CO2 with about a 1" line and a full throttle
release switch, just a full bore blast into the engine compartment to
remove all of the oxygen. I've got a few light weight aluminum bottles
around that I use to air up farm equipment tires.
Sounds just some better than loosing your eye brows throwing sand.
