FOT experts. After 50 years racing 4 cyl Triumphs, I have a problem that I
really
don't understand. At our last race meet at Fontana, Preston noticed that we
had approx 1 quart of radiator water in the oil catch can & that the radiator
was
down about a like amount. There was no evidence of oil in the water, or
evidence of water in the oil. there was no soap in the valve cover,or change
to the plug color. It ran very well with no miss & it did not get hot. The oil
& water have separate catch cans & the radiator catch can was dry. After much
head
scratching, we refilled the radiator & drained the catch can. Not knowing
what
else to do we raced the main event. The car went as well as usual, but the
conditions were back & perhaps a bit more water in the catch can than the
prior run. please let me know if you have ever faced this & what the problem
was.
