Re: [T3] gas and oil coming out of exhaust

That would explain why the exhaust was slightly blue from oil, but more
billowy white (like I had cracked a water jack).  I was so confused when I
saw the smoke, because it looked like I was starting my Volvo on a cold
winter morning, but knowing that the Notch is aircooled, I figured something
else was going on.  I didn't even think of water as a by-product of
combustion.

Thanks, Jim.  There's a reason they call you The Big Head, huh?
