I ordered a bunch of Ford 1-ton cab & chassis trucks. We quickly found out that we couldn't fuel the trucks. We refused to pay for the trucks; Ford sent factory engineers out 3 time; none of them could solve the problem. We got enough people from the shop to drive the chassis back to the dealership and parked the trucks to block all of their service entrances. That got the dealer all excited. Finally one of the service guys said to "Get Alf". This old mechanic came from the shop; looked over the situation and started calling out part numbers to the parts man. He changed the double hose arrangement and the trucks fueled perfectly; Ford hadn't provided a working vent. The parts department ran out of hose after fixing a few trucks and had to wait for more correct parts from Ford.
I remember a story about Case having transmission problems. In a service meeting, an old mechanic told them the problem was that the transmission case was flexing so much it was "breathing". Case reinforced the transmission case and that cured the problem.
