Gt350s catching fire

I read this on the other Forums and couldn't believe it. Camaros aren't having any issues of such sort.http://www.gt350.org/forum/40-mustan...stop-sale.html

Less drama please. The article stated that there have been no fires. It's an oil cooler leak.

As Brian Eno sang...

Baby's on fire
Better throw her in the water
Look at her laughing
Like a heifer to the slaughter
Baby's on fire
And all the laughing boys are bitching
Waiting for photos
Oh the plot is so bewitching
Rescuers row row
Do your best to change the subject
Blow the wind, blow, blow
Lend some assistance to the object
Photographers snip snap
Take your time she's only burning
This kind of experience
Is necessary for her learning
If you'll be my flotsam
I could be half the man I used to
They said you were hot stuff
And that's what baby's been reduced to

Juanita and Juan
Very clever with maracas
Making their fortunes
Selling second-hand tobaccos
Juan dances at Chico's
And when the clients are evicted
He empties the ashtrays
And pockets all that he's collected
But baby's on fire
And all the instruments agree that
Her temperature's rising
But any idiot would know that

Actually, that one didn't have an issue with the oil cooler lines, it was with the diff cooler. A snap ring was improperly installed, the line came loose, diff fluid hit the exhaust and caught fire. Fire melted the fuel lines and made big fire. Owner got a new GT-350R from Ford.

Here's the flip side to your coin below. Karma I guess??? Your right dude. It's funny when peoples cars catch on fire. Here's hoping yours goes up in flames. Take a picture of it and I'll make a thread about it when it happens.

Is there a runway strip in NJ where I could race you? Then I'll buy you beers.
