[QUOTE="tiki171081, post: 542922, member: 22123"] So I was about to install the firetrace system in my engine bay, when a passage in the manual got my attention: I figure the melting point of the tubing must be between 80 and 100°C? I have actually no idea what the ambient temperature in my engine bay is, but opening the engine lid after driving for a while reaveals some pretty hot air. (and 80° doesn't seem that high to me!) Has anyone attempted measuring the ambient temperature in his engine bay? I'd really be bummed if the tubing melted prematurely, ruining my engine for no good reason. Am I being too cautious here?
