In GW1, he looks like a Chomper whose head is on fire. In GW2, his back is also on fire.
Variant perk
The Fire Chomper's primary attack is not a bite, but he breathes out fire to harm nearby zombies instead. The fire breath deals ten damage continuously and causes damage over time to the zombies at a rate of five damage per second for a few seconds after the zombie is hit. Toxic Chomper and Power Chomper utilize spray instead of chomps as well.
Another benefit to the fire breath is that it bypasses additional defenses on Spawnable Zombies such as screen doors, coffins, barrels, and outhouses, making short work of heavily defended zombies, similar to the Fume-shroom in Plants vs. Zombies.
Primary weapon
Flame Spray is the primary weapon of the Fire Chomper. In GW1, it deals ten damage at 240 rpm with no button mashing exploit and deals fire damage (It deals 5 damage every 0.75s for 3.75s). In GW2, he deals 8 damage with the button mashing exploit which can be spammed at 600 rpm, giving him a incredible TTK.
The Cheesy Goop in the first in Crazy Dave's new line of gourmet marinades. It's scientifically formulated to slow Zombies down and make them taste great!
The Chomper's ultimate weapon. He has the ability to tunnel underground and ambush unsuspecting Zombies by emerging under their feet and swallowing them whole!
The Chesterweed attacks at an extremely fast speed, dealing up to 70 damage in 5 seconds. Chompers eating zombies trapped by the Chesterweed will swallow significantly faster, but the Chomper can only have two of them at a time, instead of three. It takes 60 seconds to recharge one Chesterweed.
If you're sick of being harassed by Zombies on rooftops, the Chomp Cannon is for you. Hock a loogie in their direction with this disgustingly explosive attack!
The Chomper's ultimate weapon. He has the ability to tunnel underground and ambush unsuspecting Zombies by emerging under their feet and swallowing them whole!
When a zombie stumbles into a Vampweed, you get a helpful health boost! The zombie isn't hurt, but he probably feels a bit silly falling into your trap.

Strategies
As
Although Fire Chomper has a spray that allows him to fight at a slightly longer range, he should still be played as any other Chomper. The fire effect allows you to deal lots of damage when combined with the spray's initial damage. Combining this with Goop or Spikeweeds works well to stack up the damage in a hurry. In Garden Warfare 2, his character upgrades can make him a significant threat to zombies. The Overheat and Fire Upgrades are recommended to improve his power, fire damage and Spikeweeds, respectively. His incredible TTK makes him a force to be reckoned with against most zombies.
Against
Fire Chomper should be attacked from a distance, but avoid his Goop, as it can deal damage even if the player character is on a roof or other elevated surface. Avoid getting close to Fire Chomper, as he will most likely attempt a vanquish via his Flame Spray or swallowing from behind.
When he is using Flame Spray and an All-Star uses Sprint Tackle on him, the flame has a visible range while he is flying away.
He, Fire Pea, Yeti Chomper, and Garlic Drone are the only plants mentioned in another plant's Stickerbook entry. Fire Chomper is mentioned in Power Chomper's entry.
