If it ain’t one thing it’s another.
Backed it out of the garage for a test drive and saw smoke. Saw some oily residue on the drivers side motor mount & on the exhaust right where the main exhaust bolts to the header pipe. No idea where it came from.
Drove it for a mew minutes, then came back home. Turning into the garage the smoke came back. Seemed to be related to hard left turns. My friend hopped out and put up the hood to see if we could identify the source. Locked the wheel hard left and apparently there were flames from under the intake. He had me kill it immediately so he couldn’t actually see the source but it’s in that area- under the intake on the firewall side-ish.
Directly above the motor mount is a tube that also has residue on it, and there is some splatter on the firewall. I have no idea where this is coming from, or why it would ignite, or especially why it only seems to happen at wheel lock.
Have not had the courage to start it again, so let’s troubleshoot first. Open to any & all ideas here.
