Wisconsin
The rack is in the head, so it is much more likely to stick. When it takes off, and you shut it off with the flapper, remove the valve cover and see if the rack is stuck open. Actually remove the valve cover first and see how it's supposed to work not stuck, and maybe find out if one side is more important than the other?

Other possibility is it's running on oil, which would make sense since it's more likely to take off when warmed up. How was the smoke when it took off, no, wait, never mind. Better question, How much oil is it using compared to how much it's leaking?
