mine ran for about fifteen seconds before it stalled out. it still turned over a couple more times with the starter before it locked. byron - how long did your motor continue to turn over after you started seeing smoke? i think i remember you stating that the entire process (from the INSTANT you noticed a potential problem) took several minutes. am i correct?
