[QUOTE="MetPeter, post: 496391, member: 14469"] Lefty is back in the Shack again. Want to take it out last friday for a little drive. Started the engine and it runs very well. But when driving it, white smoke came out of the exhaust. First some little clouds, so took it back and take a quick look. Then drove another block and it blew out more white smoke :cry: Parked it to avoid (more) damage. Yesterday inspected the engine on the outside. There was oil on the exhaust, and one of the spark plugs also had some oil on it. We started it (runs okay) and oil came out of one of the outlets. The problem is probably a broken valve spring :cry: So no drive this weekend (Aircooled at the Beach in Scheveningen (NL)), next week taking out the engine :( [/QUOTE]
