alexpgpI worked the store with Drew today, with a short break to go home to deliver a take-out lunch. After work, I went to the auto parts store in town and picked up about $50 of various stuff to help make the car run better.
Over the past few months, the Civic has been emitting white smoke from time to time; I can't put my finger on the rhyme or reason. Mostly, it occurs during acceleration, while changing gears. But when the engine is under load -- climbing a hill, for example -- I can't see any smoke. Hoping it's perhaps some gunk built up in the engine and not something that will require an expensive repair.
Once I got home, I washed the car for real, as I intend to do a little touch-up painting before hitting the road.
In preparation for my wiki presentation, I've moved my office Twiki install to the Zaurua. Next step: make it work. Then: use sed to eliminate "proprietary" information (e.g., names of clients, contacts).
Cheers...

Date: 2004-10-03 04:47 am (UTC)White smoke normally indicates excess oxygen in the combustion mixture. This can be due to a number of reasons: misfiring cylinders, air in the fuel due to a leak in the supply line, damaged cylinder head gasket, etc.
