[TR] Mystery Smoke

[Alex]

Thanks David,
Will add it to the list. This kind of stuff is great to be made aware of, as 
I would never have even considered that and hence would be beating the list 
to death searching for help. It's on the list. Thanks,
Alex

I had this problem with a !963 Rover  110. It turned out to be hydraulic
fluif leaking into the
Brake servo which in turn was sucking the fluif into the intake manifold.
Very difficult to diagnose until you spot that the brake fliud master
cylinder could do with a bit of topping up.

Just my  2eurocents,

issue.

A club member following behind was engulfed in a cloud of smoke when
returning
on this 60 mile run. This went on for about 20 miles where at times I
could
not see his Mini.
