    Black smoke from exahust....

    Well today i really noticed it. When i drive.. and downshift in second say... and theres a car right behind me.. and i floor it to about 5k and shift..... tons and tons of shit comes outta my exahust.. Black" and leaves the car behind me smoked. lol


    How can i make it so it doesnt do this. Is there something i can use in my gas like stop oil being burnt or something?


    Because it get's all over my bumber and since i have a white car... think its all stained :-/

    If you were burning oil, the smoke would be blue. It sounds like you're running rich more than anything...I have the same problem with my car and I have no idea why a stock car would be running rich...

      either rich due to timming

      or just hella carbon.

      check ur timming, mine is set to 14.
      What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

      You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

        your gas-air ratio is teh suck! lolz

        running rich isnt really a good thing in some cases....

        check your air filter see if the filter is cloged at all, if you have any sort of intake, i guess that wont apply really...check your oil see if your getting any fuel in it.....injectors could be going to crap, they may be leaking...could be your timing as accordz said

        i have a solution to it staining, put some type tape near where the smoke is hitting, yes it will look taky but will look better then they brown/balck spot on yur bumper, so when you get the problem fixed, its one less thing to think about.

          my car used to do that. and the funny thing is that i never went over the 3000rpm. lol
          my car burned oil to. and my #1 piston (rods were fucked)
          in other words my engine was fucked.


          lol sucks having a white car and having that black smoke problem.
          i used to clean my back bumper every week man. even in winter.
          lol

                It could be a large number of things, which most people already stated. At least running rich isn't really harmful to your engine, but you are probably losing tons of power.
