⚠️ Risk

The product poses a serious risk of fire because the positive cable from the battery could come into contact with the weld bead of the petrol tank. This may cause the weld bead to wear away the cable insulation, causing the battery to short-circuit via the petrol tank and the petrol lines. This could cause a petrol leak and/or a possible fire.
