<VV> mystery smoke

[Lon Anderson]

Agreed!
A "standard option" on all "Fresh Air Heater" equipt EM Corvairs... I believe the heater needs to be on "low" or "medium" for the "Burst O Fuzz" to work.
;-)
Later,

Hello all,
     Yesterday while driving the 63' Monza coupe a small but steady stream
f smoke started pouring out from the right side defroster vent.  At the
ime the heat was on, but the defroster was off.  The smoke had no distinct
mell that I noticed.
     I had no fire extinguisher on board and was just a couple of minutes
rom a gas station where I figured I'd be likely to find one so I kept
riving and just opened a window.  Before I made it to the gas station the
moke stopped.  There is no sign of any trouble or damage and everything
orks fine.  I've driven the car (now with extinguisher!) short distances
everal times since with no problems.  I've looked up under the dash and saw
othing unusual.  
     The engine does have typical oil leaks.  I recently (about a month ago)
ad the bottom shrouds off and cleaned them pretty thoroughly, last summer I
ad the top shroud off and cleaned under there and the car has not been
itting for any long period of time since.  

    Any ideas?
