Subject:White smoke?
From:Wesley Pegden

My '84 1.9l started blowing white smoke a few weeks ago.  I made it home
mostly coasting (under a mile) and checked it out, the vacuum hoses were
all shot (cracked, falling off, etc), I figured that was the problem.
(It also was idling really erratically).  Haven't driven it since then
until today: I fixed the hoses finally, started it up, idles fine, drive
it around the block, starts blowing smoke again halfway around.  When I
get back to where I was parked before (2 minutes later) it's idling badly.

Ideas?  Did I mess something up?

Thanks very much!
Wes
