Could flames/heat ignite an M2-2 flamethrower tank with no breach in its fuel unit

it will spring a leak in which case it will be a flamethrower or it will fail catastrophically and there will be an explosion. Of course reality depends on the details.......
Could flames/heat ignite an M2-2 flamethrower tank with no breach in its fuel unit?

So, I'm writing a novel, and there is a key scene in the prologue where an antagonist's flamethrower is set alight and I was wondering approximately how long the fuel tank, consumed by fiery heat, would take to ignite the flame pack, if at all.

Thanks!

No idea what a M2-2 is but... it's a fricken novel so it is fiction.

However... If the tank temperature is raised, the material the tank is made of will become softer and weaker plus the gas inside the tank will also get hotter and it will try to expand, increasing the pressure. Chances are that, at some point, it will spring a leak in which case it will be a flamethrower or it will fail catastrophically and there will be an explosion. Of course reality depends on the details.
