DeTomaso vehicles are actually specialty cars as you owners know. We've had them come in after visiting half dozen 'shops' around the US and none could get them to stop boiling over. See it all the time. Usually breaking something else they had no business touching in the first place. While being a relatively simple car to work on, they are ~different~ in more than a few ways. Not only cooling system, electrical seems to big another big issue to ~normal~ auto shops if you will. Keep in mind there are Rolls Royce specific shops, Ferrari specific, Jaguar, even Austin Healey exclusive shops that specifically service the ~older~ models. All with different forte. DeTomaso products are user/owner friendly. But what happens when an early 3 point o, 8 cyl (308) enthusiast attempts to change his timing belts on  4 cam, and misses the 5-8 bank cog by one tooth? Oh boy. Hold on to your hat! Immediate valve crash. Engine out.
