Fire extinguisher is a must. I had a fire in my Holley a few years back,
when starting up the engine without aircleaner installed.
No harm done though as I had a Halon fire extinguisher standing at the
rear left wheel, just some black smoke patches to wipe off under the
roof part sticking out over the engine.
I found out there were some leakages in the Holley body. I fixed it,
and it worked fine. Changed to new Holley 650 mechanical DP later on.
