Ancient unstable fuel nodes are ruins added by the Ideology DLC. They spawn in ancient complexes, and act as traps, exploding and setting fires when pawns enter rooms.
Summary
When destroyed or damaged beyond 99% of its health, i.e. any attack that deals damage, it will spark and emit a hissing sound and explode after 480 ticks (8 secs), dealing 10 Flame damage in a 6.9 tile radius around itself. This explosion leaves Chemfuel puddles on 25% of the tiles covered by the explosion which will then ignite and burn.

tips and tricks
1. Bringing a firefoam popper on the caravan trip and placing it nearby the fuelnode is a good way of stopping the fire from spreading too much and destroying everything(since some of the ancient ruins contain flammable objects)
