I have a 1966 Coup and this is my first go a classic. It is in good shape just needs a bit of TLC. Anyway on to my questions.
1)The caps on my valve covers seem to be blowing what I think is too much smoke. The cover is a custom chrome type not stock. Is this a sign of bad things to come? I have had the car for only one week and don't know the oil burn rate. There is no smoke coming out of the exhaust. Any ideas?
2) When the car is idling for say 10-15 min the engine temp is getting close to the "H" end of the idiot gauge. I still need to check out the thermostat, water pump, hoses and the radiator. Is there anything else I should look at?
The engine is very strong and does not over heat when moving down the road.
Thanks,
C
