I was working on my 151 and had a fellow helping me, GROWN man, we had
passenger seat out so he could get to heater, it makes quite a boom when you
are heavy enough to mash lid to battery compartment down against posts of
battery, and you have been running vehicle and batteries were a little low
when you started this project so compartment had hydrogen gas in it. Pretty
good boom, he said he felt it, no injuries, no damage. Been all the same
had there been someone hurt. My intentions are to glue piece of vinyl to
inside of lid.
