Thumbs down Flame Throwers **WARNING**

Flame throwers with the coil will deffinitly ruin your engine
Trust me on this one, i read a manufactures warning and it says that it will cause long term engine damage, so if you want to spend some cash on a new engine or components, be my guest, this is a WARNING!

Welcome to FTE. In my opinion, throwers are foolish. You are asking for trouble.

lol... troll??

the only reason it causes long term damage is from the extra gas washing down the cylinders when you pull the choke. Nothing to due with the coil..

The long term damage that Flame Throwers do is very little if their done right. The manufaturers warning is just a disclaimer to cover their butts is someone messes up.
