Ferrari Mailing List: Question and advice asked for

[BRITT ROTHMAN (britt2asa]

Hi guys,
This is NOT my car ( Clyde’s ex car) . Had a question today from one of the 
very few other owners of a 512tr here in Sweden. He got his car in October last 
year so is new to it. He said he drove it today for about an hour, parked it 
for 20 minutes and upon start up had “ a puff of blue smoke” which was unusual 
enough he was concerned. Said car was driving normally, and when he gave it the 
beans on the motorway afterwards he couldn’t see anything.

So to the Ferrari list I ask, based on this  limited description, anything to 
worry about? Normal for an old car not driven to much for the past 8 months? ( 
but started every two weeks) for 30 minutes. Could a little hot oil leak down 
into the cylinders after a spirited run but not mean anything is wrong? 

Just your thoughts?
Regards
Britt in Stockholm
