hondaboy Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Anyone ever heard of "black smoke" coming from an engine that runs rich? The boys on the Skyline page regard this as standard occurance for their cars,but sounds suspect to me! dosen't sound like a good thing!

It's not a good thing but it's preferable to running lean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
