RS1984

Got a stage 3 2WD saff and went for good 100 mile drive yesterday!! Was running bang on all day with no problems. Was driving home and got stuck in a bit of traffic...as I was sitting there i started to see a very little amount of smoke coming out of the vents nearest the windscreen. I pulled over popped the bonnet and saw nothing!! No smoke, so set back on my way, started to smoke ever so slightly then stopped!! drove home (another half an hour) and nothing. Drove to work this morning....nothing!! it defo was'nt over heating!! Wierd!!!!

Any advice would be much appreciated!!

Bit of steam from the breaks or something leaked onto the manifold etc perhaps

Thank's mate!! I thought it could be something hitting the manifold!! (didnt think of the break steam though so thanks again!!)

Thanks Guys,

Will go and check it out now!! If it's one thing with saff's that worries me the most is any kind of smoke coming from the engine!!

just had a though....If it were the clutch cable mentling or a wiring problem surely it would smell to the high heavens!?...it didnt smell at all. And it has'nt done it since!?
