My thinking, based on the engine fires I have witnessed, that the fire "system" never gets used unless the passenger compartment gets engulfed in flames, right?

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I am putting the finishing touches on the 996 race car and was thinking about the fire system nozzle placement. Why bother putting a nozzle in the engine compartment or in the front trunk? If I am going to pull the cable to launch the halon, isn't it more important that I don't burn? At that point, who cares about the engine or the front trunk? It seems more important to not waste halon on the machinery that is probably toast anyways. Has anyone ever pulled the fire system cable JUST for an engine fire? I doubt it... but it makes me wonder. My thinking, based on the engine fires I have witnessed, that the fire "system" never gets used unless the passenger compartment gets engulfed in flames, right? I've only seen someone use their built-in fire system in the pits.... by accident! Any thoughts from the club racing crew on here? Nozzles necessary outside of the passenger compartment?

One on the fuel-saftey even though they never rupture. One on the engine - that is where fire start and cost the most. One on you - for saftey,mine is pointed at my crotch.
