Read complaints for CHEVROLET CAPRICE (1987)
My father's 1987 caprice was completely destroyed along with its garage. Fire erupted from under hood as engine was being started. He was fortunate to escape. I, his son, have a 1988 caprice with the same 305 cid engine and the same 4-barrel carb; and i have been noticing gas fumes during operation of the car for several months. My question: is there some problem with engine fires in caprices with this engine/carb combination? have there been any recall campaigns?
