The carb float was hard to set and gas flowed like a fountain out of the carb. I have an Air Gap manifold and it served as a reservoir for the spilled gas. The starter sparked it. Exciting.


EDIT: Regarding fire extinguishers in race cars, it is addressed in Section 9:3 of General. Extinguishers mounted in race cars must be a minimum of 2.5 lbs. and securely fastened. Flip open clamps are prohibited. I need a bigger extinguisher and an approved clamp.

The mount I use... http://www.quadratec.com/products/98003_19X0_PG.htm along with http://www.quadratec.com/products/98003_001X_PG.htm#. I suppose it is legal...I feel better with it strapped within reach. I have it mounted high on the passenger side bar so it can be seen from outside in a panic situation.
