Carbon tetrachloride CCL4
When carbon reacts with chlorine, carbon tetrachloride is formed. This reaction occurs by the replacement of hydrogen atoms in a methane molecule with chlorine atoms. Carbon tetrachloride is a colorless liquid that was commonly used as a solvent and fire extinguisher.

The first carbon dioxide portable fire extinguisher in the USA was made by Walter Kidde & Co., Inc. in 1924.
Carbon Dioxide or foam.
Cold fire is often used by jugglers and flame eaters. It can be made by immersing an object in a mixture of carbon disulfide and carbon tetrachloride. This will produce a flame but it will only be warm. Extreme care should be taken however as it will produce a noxious acrid smoke and carbon tetrachloride is carcinogenic.

What you have to avoid with grease fires is throwing water on them, because the burning grease will just float on the water and will be splashed around as the water heats and vaporizes, spreading the fire, rather than being put out. But the carbon dioxide based fire extinguisher doesn't have that problem.
It is the propellant used to force water out of the extinguisher.
Carbon dioxide, or foam, or dry powder. At no time should a soda water extinguisher be used, as the water will cause the burning gasoline to flare up and spread even further.
