 Is the problem equally prevalent in later water-cooled models?

Marty - I don't know the answer, I'm just starting to learn about hese fires.
I do know that there have been alot of fires in the air cooled buses.  It is
important that the bus groups get this figured-out before someone is killed.
I will post additional info as I learn more.
