Sure he didn't just overheat the clutch? A slipping belt wouldn't make smoke "billow", and short of somthing hitting the exhaust and getting a bit hot, I've no idea. Need more info.

Just had bad news from home. Our maintenance guy went to move the Delorean back into the garage, only to suddenly see smoke billowing form the back, accompanied by a distinct burning rubber smell. I wont see it till 1:30 or so, what on earth could that have been? I'm a bit worried, I knowit's not coolant, could it be a belt slipping? I'll update later. I know it has nothing to do with overheating, as the car was only running for 2 mins. I can't wait to get her to Darren for a manifold fix, and general service. She seems to be sulking after the other Deloreans left her :(

Stephen.
