that Vintage is a bit late- but defective casting on 4 barrels used on Fords, some AMC Jeeps, a few Chryslers did leak and engine bay fires got some bad publicity. A few police cars cauoght fire, mostly light trucks had the burn problem. Jeep Dealer I worked at awhile back had Wagoneer pulled in with engine fire damage- AMC expected old Kaiser Dealer to do warantee work since AMC car dealers didn't know about jeeps, didn't have parts. Jeep dealers didn't have good carbs either, were back ordered, repair kits back ordered also. Dealer was on record of repairing and getting a out of warantee Commercial Jeep with snow plow back on road in less than a month- so obvious he had parts and mechanics, right? What we had was a customer with cash settlement in hand and no warantte meant no OEM parts needed- just get it ready and safe before snow fall- mechs and parts man (me) had contacts with hot rodders and aftermarket parts suppliers so easy enough to do- but not acceptable for warantee work on another vehicle that was in 3 month before factory rep came by with customer and blamed dealer, parts man--SO, customer got a earfull about back orders and COD on orders from factory parts warehouse for warrantee of vehicle sent by factory service rep. State attorney had alternate that factory rep could sign off on- non OEM parts and customer paid, factory reimbursed. vehicle towed to AMC dealers- ended up with another old Kaiser dealer 2 months later and I gave the parts numbers for hotrod carb kit, supplier to mech- customer was suing AMC for about full price of vehicle for get on road and possible class action suit- AMC lost a couple million.
