I DID bring great beer the first time and no one drank it.

The oil cloud was from the the puddle left in one of the cylinders after it rolled. Remember when we first started adjusting the valves? I pulled a spark plug out, turned the engine over by hand a few degrees and a geyser of oil shot out and hit Marc's car. Last night's smoking episode would have been a lot worse had that oil not gotten out of there. It really wasn't so bad. I know there was some oil in the left heat exchanger too. By the time we got onto Wiehle Ave. (less than a mile), there was no more smoke. Just heard from Dulles that she needs a full corner/weight balance job, which ain't cheap. My huge savings is going up in smoke today.
