Well, I'll be doing the same investigation on the '93.  No smoke from  
the front end, however (at least not yet).
Will be spraying everything down with brake cleaner first and then  
the paper towel trick per Ed's suggestion -- never thought of that -  
great idea, Ed!  I'll likely tie the paper towel down with zip-ties  
or baling wire.

Then I can report back my findings as well.

Best of luck.
