Several months ago I posted a message about my newly overhauled A and how it smoked on startup and at idle. I had installed new valves and guides, so thought that couldn't be the problem. However, I did as someone suggested and ran the engine with the valve cover off. Oil just ran out of the rocker arms putting a lot of oil in the rocker arm/valve area. So I got some umbrella seals from the machine shop that did the work and installed them. What a difference! It doesn't smoke at all any more when running, when idling and on startup. Before the overhaul it did the same thing, so part of my smoke problem to begin with was the valves (there were other reasons it needed an overhaul). Thanks for the ideas to try. Roger
