biggest problem I have heard of was after maintenance the fuel selector knobs were not installed at the correct positions, there is no master spline and can be fitted in potentially 20 odd positions due to its design, if the control cable tubes are not lubed then the selector drives slip as well throwing it out. hope the new ones are better!
