[Fot] Fire Suppression system

[David Gott]

Hi Scott,
I was able to replace the Phoenix fire bottle that came in my TR4, dated from 1976, with a current “Fire Bottle” from Pegasus. Meets all current SCCA regs for me.    I didn’t have to change anything except the bottle; plug and play.  Not sure if it fits your setup, but worked great for me.  Way cheaper than a whole new system!   Here’s a link to what I used.  https://www.pegasusautoracing.com/productdetails.asp?RecID=7026 
Hope that helps!Dave Gott

I’ve got a 5 lb Halon bottle with nozzles in my car that is at least 10 years old, probably more.  I’ve heard the product cakes up and will no longer work after a while, so I’m interested in making sure the car is as safe as can be.
I’ve looked at replacement systems (this one is SPA, they no longer service Halon) and they will cost at least $700 if I want something that is legal for SCCA.
Anyone know if the Halon actually does become unserviceable, or have experience getting the Halon bottle  tested/refilled?Yes, Halon is ozone depleting and no longer sold.  However, I’ve still got a tank full!_______________________________________________
