Subject:      RE California Gas.

": The Chameleon <ktgatlin@csupomona.edu>" wrote: "One, the companies or research companies claim that the new gas in California affects only a very small portion of the cars in use as far as eroding seals or gas rubber lines. I disagree. Nissan is in the middle of a huge recall with all their cars because of a number of gas fires related to leaking injectors. Nissan's customer service across the board has been less than exemplary and costing its customers lots of time, etc. The recall was voluntary, but I think they feard a lawsuit. This is all stuff I heard from the Z car mailing list. Also, there is a noted increase in engine fires across the board and that has been noted in the web page related to Smog Check II in California (Search on KSFO and Smog check II to find the server). "

Nissan is not the only manufacturer to recall for this, I believe that BMW has recalled all it's cars back throught the 1989 model year for the same reasons.
