Hello Spridgets,
Before setting out on a drive to the Coast down the scenic Columbia River
(Washington side) this morning I topped up the oil and the dash pots. .. Just
about the time I was turning onto U.S. 101 thought I could smell something
buring.... maybe oil?....It went away and I figured it was that car I just
passed. 50 or 60 miles further I smelled it again. And a little later again
AND I could have sworn I saw a puff of smoke INSIDE the car. .. hmmm... by the
time I was back thru the coast range and onto I-5 i was getting it every 3 or
4 minutes. I DID NOT want to look lest if find something that would prevent me
from getting back home, so I continued driving until I had the car in the
garage. When I popped the hood, I found that I had NOT put the cap back on the
valve cover oil filler hole and had blown oil all over the engine compartment.
I'm gonna have to find some degreaser I guess. ..
DUMB DUMB DUMB!
