NHTSA received IMPCO TECHNOLOGIES, INC.’s report on Sep 20, 1991. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 20, 2026.

Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.

What’s wrong with it?

THE CONVERTER CONTAINS A SECONDARY LEVER, WITH A SEATWHICH REGULATES THE FLOW OF LPG GAS TO THE MIXER. THE SEAT SEPARATES FROM THELEVER, WHICH ALLOWS FULL TANK PRESSURE TO BE APPLIED TO THE MIXER. THIS CAUSESTHE GAS HOSE TO BLOW OFF THE MIXER. IF THIS OCCURS, FUEL WOULD FLOW INTO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT WHERE IT COULD BE IGNITED BY A HOT ENGINE OR OTHER SOURCE OFIGNITION.

THE SECONDARY SEAT CAN SEPARATE FROM THE SECONDARY LEVER OF THE MODEL EB OR MODEL LB CONVERTERS.

THIS IS CAUSED BY A MATERIAL OR A MANUFACTURING DEFECT OF THE RUBBER SEAT.

What the record doesn’t say

  • NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
  • Which ones, by part or lot: the recall’s report on NHTSA’s site gives them where the maker did; this file gives part numbers only where its maker listed them.
  • How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
