TB removal and then some!!! - Page 41 - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Roadster · 01-20-2018

Went to HD today for 8ft shop light bulbs......and across the isle were the fire extinguishes......the lighting worker there told me that they just came in....so I made another purchase.....here is the info for those interested.....
A nice compact extinguisher for "Autos".....good for 12 years or one time use.......6 year warranty....all for $17.88

DOT approved.....

great size IMO.....will fit nice in the ZR-1

FYI.....check the bottom of your extinguisher before purchasing as I was told.....the date of manufacture is right there....here you see 2018....brand new and current.....can't do better than that.....

Cool that is where I purchase ice melt and lightbulbs.
I find their lumber of poor quality!

Roadster · 01-21-2018

Don't buy the lumber.....[emoji16]

Also a nice feature is the plastic bracket.....when locked makes for the extinguisher to stay "flat" and not slide allover wherever stored...when the vehicle is in motion....also size comparison with my garage unit....

To nice of a day not to take the ZR-1 out for a ride......temps were up to 79* here today.....running great as it has been.......idle is still perfect each and everytime coming to a complete stop.....so no issues there.....hopefully I'll never have to touch the TB again......lol

With all of the chat about the clutch neutral safety switch......since I am not one for cutting into the harness to bypass the switch......decided to pick up a spare.....just in case.....always better to have than not to have......
