Re: [ihc] Smokeing Question

[Colin Gebhart <colin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Skip,

Since you just did brake work, i'm gonna throw this out there.  Are
you sure no brake fluid is getting pulled down the vacuum line to the
brake booster?  At idle you've got the most vacuum and the engine is
turning slowest meaning any oil that gets to it would have the
greatest effect.

Good luck, Colin.
