Didn't see a lot of the heaters go bang, but did see a lot of the plastic drive pulleys strip themselves. I used to keep bins of parts dedicated strictly for these heaters in the tool crib.
The lists of LSVW failures is endless.....underpowered, frequently caught fire, fuel problems, electrical problems......even a simple thing like the oil sending unit has not been fixed after 20 years. The sending units develop internal leaks and constantly require replacement. I had word from the LCMM recently that the LSVW divestment program was starting. However, it now appears that with half of the B vehicle fleet being mothballed, that many of the LSVWs may be kept around as a source of spare parts for the remaining trucks.
