    Same happened to my moonstone 3rd, I was racing a bike down the A696 (newcastle airport) and it burst into flames, it was the 2 inch pipe from the regulator to the fuel rail that had perished and burst, unfortunately i opened the bonnet and the fire really took hold, I was forced to sit and watched it burn crying my eyes out,, when the fire brigade arrived they used a crowbar to rip my dash out to get to the fire, which made me cry more lol

    2 major things on a cossie.

    2. Carry a decent fire extinguisher.
