We borrowed an old Revere 85 projector from a friend. Everything seems to work...but within 5 seconds of turning it on, it starts to smoke. I know this is a bad sign...but not sure if this usually means that a specific part has gone bad or if there is anything that can be done to fix this projector. Any suggestions?

Greetings
It may just be dirt and oil from sitting for a long time.
Is it smokeing with or without the lamp on?
