Since I figured out teh "smoking" problem I thought I would share the solution. It is a bit noobie'ish but goes to show experience plays a big part of things. The short answer is I had a flat and did not realise it. These tires are soo heavy duty that when the SS is sitting there the tire does not squish down, it looks full. Well, it was flat. A guy that was over doing some trench work and I were talking and he asked to see it drive. He laughed and said "you got a flat." I took the tire into town and they found dirt and rocks in the tire. When I drove it would cause the dirt to start to puff out looking like smoke. After a new valve stem and a tube the SS runs like a champ, no smoke <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
