A shared a few beers and talked to a engineer that worked for the Ethyl corporation back in the days of trying to certify cars for emissions. He said manufacturers would send cars from all over the world for them to certify.
He said the strangest car came from a small British manafacturer that has a small bell-crank in the carb linkage. It would break after just a few hours of operation. Every other manafacturer would have upgraded the bell-crank. This company just sent a entire box of bell-cranks along with the car.
