it yourself for about $60. Cheap insurance.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>But yow! Been in there since 2005? While it’s out of the car, you should
really have it checked and refilled. The powder in the bottle can cake over
time and even if the gauge shows green, you pull the handle and nothin’
happens. Find any fire and emergency equipment supplier in your yellow pages
and take the bottle to them. They’ll check it out, reload it, hang a new tag
on it. It’s something that should be done every couple of years or so – ask
them how often when you take it in, but I guarantee 13 years is too
long!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>They can probably give you the best answer as far as mounting it too, as
long as you’re in their neighborhood.</DIV>

<DIV>I just pulled the Haylon, plumbed in fire extinguisher, along with all
the other stuff bolted to the floor in my Spitfire to do some touch up
painting. It's been in the car since I bought it in 2005 and is still good
(unscrewed the bottle and checked the cable pull as well). My question is, how
should it be mounted? It's currently horizontal, which makes me think it's
going to discharge liquid if I ever have to use it. Should it be mounted
vertically or it it designed to dump liquid out which will then vaporize and
push out the air, strangulating the fire?<BR><BR></DIV>Google is no help, all
I get are ads for green replacement type
systems.<BR><BR></DIV>thanks<BR></DIV>mike h<BR></DIV>
