Shakedown runs are good, I try to get in at least 200 miles before buttoning=
up the interior=20
RE: Smoke from the breather. Check you water level to be sure it is where y=
ou last checked it. Pull the oil filler cap and look underneath, if you see=
a grayish gunk then you probably have water in your oil....not a good thing=
. Clean it off and go again to be sure. =20
RE: Pinging. Where do you live, hot day driving? Pinging, or pre-ignition,=
can be either timing is too advanced or you need to step up the octane rati=
ng of your petrol. In the summertime I always run premium. This could be c=
ausing the engine to run hot and thus some smoke, if not steam, at your brea=
ther. =20
Hope this helps,
Bill
