I am with Stan on this one... anything that is manual activation in my car is PULL...
Not push...

Also in ORDER...

Front pull is for engine fire system = front of car
Middle pull is for cabin fire system = middle of car
Back Pull is Chute release = in back of car..

my mind is simple and so is the layout in my car ..

just my thoughts

Here is a pic of my old chute release lever.



My new chute is integrated with the clutch lever, pull the chute and it disengages (and locks open) the clutch.

Try Bimba or Clippard, both products are great.
