Hi List, first of all, "HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE"!
I don't want to get a battle going about how your going to blow yourself
up using propane mix refrigerants. But I did see a tape on the
possibilities. Some EPA testing agency ran a test where they had a fixture
to opened a can of propane mix in a fully enclosed Ford Pu, and make a
spark. Well the blast blew opened both doors and blew out the
windshield!!!!!
Now I know that was a controlled test with a sealed area, and the chance
of an A/C system leak filling your car to a combustible percentage of gas
and air is almost nil. And like I say no battles here, but I immediately
realized two things.
1) I wouldn't want to be in any car when that happened.
2) That was one of the best use's of a Ford I've ever seen!
