Rebuilt 1600

When breaking in a rebuilt engine, is it normal for there to be a puff of white smoke when I turn it over? This happened today and was the first and only time it has happened.

Just curious.

Hi there,

I took it to the mechanic who did the rebuild and it turned out to be running a bit rich. We had the carb setup when it was really hot out in the summer and now the temperature has changed.

It was really nothing. I'll get more details on carb tweaking today when I go get the car so I can deal with it myself in the future. =)
