The larger of the two reported numbers of cars with fires (260), amounts to 0.07% of Fieros produced. The fires affected almost exclusively the 2.5 L engine, and mostly 1984 models. Fires were caused by low oil levels for those who are Idiots and do not check their oil levels.There was a saftey recall that fixed these issues. My plan is for a 86-88 with the 2.8L.

I understand Toyota loyalty but it's nice if we could make nonbias post.

And for GeneW, haven't heard anything about the harness but, even with my Mustang I had harness problems and I always have a manual for a car no matter what car it is but, thanks for the input.
