Well today I was running my Super C, playing around with it a little since I just bought it. I shut it off, hand cranked it, shut it off, and hand cranked it again, and the last time it kind of smoked a little when it fired up, and blew a little bit of water out the muffler. I shut it down, opened the oil petcocks and there was no evidence of coolant, but I then remembered that coolant will probably sit on top of oil, so I pulled the dipstick and it looked like it had a green tint to it, but was hard to tell. I was running late for work at this point, so I had to come in. But now sitting here I can't help but wonder why it would do this. It wasn't over heated that I noticed (temp gauge doesn't work) and was only running for maybe 20 minutes or so, if that. When I first started it today, it had stalled a couple times randomly after 10 or so minutes of running/driving around, but always fired right back up, then for a minute or two acted like it was plugged up a little, like something got in the fuel line, it would die down, yank on the choke, come back to life, and so forth a few times. Other than that it's been running fine, never smokes, never lost any oil psi..and I'm puzzled as to why it would do this. Going to drain the oil tonight when I get off, or tomorrow morning.
