It was traced to the factory belt driven fan - the clutch in it fails due to age - replaced with a pair of thermo's and it's been fine since.




I don't think my fan is going to give way any time soon luckily... you should see how much air it pushes, if im parked on a semi-dusty surface, and rev the car up to 4,000rpm, it creates a smokescreen almost, hahaha

The sound of the fan almost overshadows the sound of the motor

damn stock exhaust Laughing

on startup, it gives a tiny wisp of a puff of smoke...

I noticed when i let a friend have a quick spin of it just up the road and back that when stone cold and he took off, it blew a little smoke, other than that, doesnt blow smoke...


It still runs fine, at least to my knowledge, And from what I've been told a service should fix whatever problems I may have

I hope to have it sorted soon.
