OUCH!
Good smokescreening, but in the wrong place..
Blew up a chevy V-6 once, but I don't remember HOW we did it.
What I DO remember was: We were doing a 65 mph(at least) sprint down the highway and then dropped back the speed for backroads when there was a ghastly lurching, blue-grey smoking from everywhere at once, and then a sudden stop.
It was an education.
We walked the remaining 4 miles home in record time to get a buddy who had a towtruck..

LOL This case was the 2nd time I'd had to wrestle a 60,000 pound truck off the road without power steering.
