This one's really aimed at Mr. Moore, but any resident expert will be helpful.
In reading a post in the Firefighter's Forum called "Strange Sparks at a car fire" regarding a 'fireworks' display that was produced when applying water to a section of the vehicle on fire. It seems the common opinion is that in some place in the burning vehicle there was magnesium, which based on description I would have to agree with. The original poster stated he believed the vehicle was a Chrysler product.
For safety reasons, the question I think we need answered here is are there any Chrysler products out there that contain magnesium? If so, which models so we can be better prepared for future jobs.
I realize this is a fire related question but heck, what better place to find a bunch of auto construction experts than the "University of Extrication" forum? Please refer back to the post in question in the Firefighter's forum for a little more info!
Any ideas?
