Did Ford ever fix the explosive problem with the Pinto? - 1
Yes - the vehicles were recalled and dealers installed a plastic barrier between the tank and the frame
It was fixed 37 years ago.
the car was no more fire-prone than other cars of the time, and its fatality rates were lower than comparably sized imported cars

Yes, they did
- Did ford ever put a V8 in any of the Rangers? I'm wondering if Ford ever made a Ford Ranger with a V8 engine. I know for a fact that they put a 4 cylinder and V6's in them and I know they put V8's in Ford Explorer's but I have no idea if they put them in the Ranger
- Did the Ford Mustang ever come equipped with hubcaps? Wondering if there's ever been a mustang from any generation that had hubcaps standard or as an option?
- Did Ford ever make an 8.0 L V8? I was reading the GTS standings for the 1999 ALMS season and it says the Saleen Mustang SR had a Ford 8.0 L V8.
- How to fix a misfire problem on a 302 Ford? I have a 1970 Torino with a BOSS 302 and the number 6 cylinder(2nd cylinder from the firewall on the passenger side) is misfiring. I replaced the spark plugs, the spark plug wires, ignition coil, distributor(cap and rotor) and its still misfiring. It's always been that same cylinder since I bought the car a few months ago. I don't know if it has compression or it the valves are messed up, but when I took the wire off of the spark plug, it was sparking as the engine was running.
