Glad to hear you don=E2=80=99t have a water issue=E2=80=A6=E2=80=A6 If =
this is a new build the smoke you are seeing could simply be stray bits =
of lube burning off.
=20
Fiddle with the timing a little, I use the factory recommended 4deg BTDC =
but other people have varied from this, usually more advanced. =
Don=E2=80=99t know how much petro is in your tank so allow for that =
blending before you rule out premium gas as a solution.
=20
Good luck.

Ok checked under cap, minor amount of black "soot" so thinking oil blow =
off? Definitely no water. Phew :-)=20

As for the temperature, southern Ontario yesterday was 24degC so nothing =
overly hot but motor did get up to 190degF. =20

So, try retarding the dizzy a bit or stick some premium fuel in as step =
one?

Shakedown runs are good, I try to get in at least 200 miles before =

RE: Smoke from the breather. Check you water level to be sure it is =
where you 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 rating of your petrol. In the summertime I always run =
premium. This could be causing the engine to run hot and thus some =
smoke, if not steam, at your breather. =20
