a very long time ago.. I was removing a car gas tank.. the seam split.. I was covered from head to toe. at a gas station/garage.. nothing happened.. I took proper procedures not to catch on fire..

I lived... and returned to work the next day..

I would be more careful.. handling 110 octane racing fuel.. then a possible lipo fire.

I guess some might not read threads... just post onto them..
yah i lost a good friend of mine 18 years ago that decided to weld on a gas tank with not argon purg what a bang the hole is still in his property where his work shop was.later Brian.RIP oh you did..

Like I said no Fire extinguisher will put out a LIPO fire but will put out fire after!
