Bug: Negative MTBF in the cold street taxi V8 scenario

I was trying different things in the cold street taxi scenario and it gave me a negative MTBF for some reason, yet no warnings about the engine failing for any reason. I tried recreating the engine in sandbox mode but i couldnt because the carburettor i needed wasnt unlocked in the year of the scenario (1946). if i put the quality up to 12 or higher it would give me a positive MTBF.
