Was driving home from work yesterday when i decided to floor it up the sliproad onto the motorway. Went fine until i changed into third and felt the power falling temporlarily. Looked in my rear view mirror and saw a HUGE clowd of smoke!!!
I mean if anyone was driving behind they probably would have been blinded, this was a lot of smoke.
Pulled over onto the hard shoulder, turned it off and went for a look, but couldnt see anything. Turned it back on, give it a few revs and a bit more smoke came out. Drove home slowly (bout a mile away) and by the time i got home it appeared to have fixed itself 
Havent driven it since lol, any ideas folks?

The smoke was pretty white, maybe with a slight blue tinge. Cant really remember. Going to check my oil level now, and check for signs the water has mixed with the oil

Mine did this once, did the cam cover breather mod, helped a bit.
Ended up putting a catch tank on and it cured it completely.
