Had the transmission out of the BJ8 fitted new clutch kit inc pressure plate and thrust bearing along with a few other goodies, alloy oil pan, modified rear oil seal and geared starter (wow that makes a difference). First test run today 10 miles to check for oil leaks etc all good except I noticed a few wisps of white smoke escaping from the bellhousing actually coming from around where the starter is bolted on I don't think these starters make such a good seal around the flange as the originals do. No oil is coming from the tell tale and I did clean the housing before assembly, It is not a lot of smoke but took about five minutes to stop after quitting the engine, I thought at first it was the starter shorting but it's not, could it just be the new clutch bedding in ?
