8ntruck 9,095 #26526 Posted 1 hour ago I noticed a small amount of smoke coming from under the hood of Morgan, the 14-8. Closer inspection revealed the smoke was coming from the front of the engine around the exhaust port where there was an accumulation of oily dirt. Today, I gave the engine a bath with spray on Gunk and the garden hose. Looks much better, though it didn't want to start. Probably got the points damp. I try it tomorrow and see what happens. This happened last time I cleaned the engine - no start right after cleaning, but ran fine the next day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Try a bead of dielectric grease around the points cover and the gromet to keep the moisture out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
