Rob,

Neither gasoline or brake fluid are poised to dump flammable gas into the
cabin of your Vanagon - you're A/C system is in the event of a expansion
valve or evaporator failure.

Subject: Friday flammables

The other day on the list we were talking about the contents of an air
conditioning system, a propane/isobutane mix was mentioned as was the
un-comfort level of having flammables in that system.

I guess it's all relative.

We are sitting on 15.9 gallons of gasoline with a flash point of -50 degrees
f There is 2.5 gallons of propane that is a gas at -44 degrees f right
behind us (well behind me, I have a westy) We have brake fluid in front of
us, it's a flammable with a high flash point (248 degrees f) but it's still
a flammable.

Springtime most places, not AC weather up here yet but I've read it is some
places, which I guess is why we are talking about AC systems & the like.
