Recently, several fires have occurred in the car. There are several causes until the car engulfed in flames and other car owners should be wary.
Fuel Leaks
Leakage of fuel most often affects the car. The trigger, there are two. First, the connection between the fuel hose is not meeting or precision. Second, start brittle hoses because of his age. Typically, conditions began to brittle over 5 years. Cars with the injection system, the examination of these components must be more intensive since the pressure is great enough.
Droplets of gasoline would be more dangerous when it occurs in the engine room because of frequent sparks, usually from the old alternator or exhaust system,
Electrical
There are two parts, each body and engine power. The emergence of a spark due to a short circuit occurs due to the age of the cable is old and peeling skin. It could also be ‘shorted’ because of looseness of fuse clip (in the engine room) that can generate heat and eventually melt due to heat. Still about the fuse under the dash (lamp) is replaced amperage size bigger so that the fuse melts.
Bad brakes
Usually the brake caliper is not functioning properly resulting in endless hot work so hard and make the rubber seal to melt and leak brake fluid. Condition of brake calipers are burning from the heat if exposed to oil could accelerate the onset of fire in advance there are some systems that use brake caliper cover is made of plastic.
Packaging exhaust
Usually used by those who modify the car by using the heat in the exhaust silencer? Actually, no problems so far not affected by oil on its surface area. Because oil will trigger a fire when the exhaust temperature is high.
