header smoke

<< < (2/3) > >>

Winterracing:
just a thought.  I took them off over the winter and just went to take them off again and some of the nuts were a bit loose.  Could this be part of it? 

Thanks,

If the smoke was coming off of the header, then it's likely dirt or grease/ oil on the header. If it was coming out of the header, then you may have something more serious.

Nope it was just off of the header.  Once the motor was fired there was nothing coming out of the muffler

Make sure you don't have any oil dripping onto the header. Otherwise, I think it is just dirt and oil/ grease from taking it off and putting it back on. Wouldn't stress too much.

Sounds like you spilled stuff on it, the only other times I have seen "smoke" was if it was not bolted tight to the motor or muffler was not tight and it leaked around the pipes.
