Default RE: Is this pipe OK?

When you guys say a warm/hot/wet start what exactly are you referring to? The gas combustion or kero? Sometimes I get short blue flames during the gas stage but Ive never seen anything more than that.

Would you say the majority of pipe failures are a result of a kero problem?

Ive seen some really intense flames (yellow/orange) that shoot 2 feet or so out of the pipe during the fuel ramp, Is that what is important to watch out for?
