I actually have not started the car, I am getting it from the owner, until this problem arose. Here is what he said: "The car runs fine other then it has lots of black smoke coming out which is of course the dumping of the excess fuel - however, it is getting so much fuel that it is actually going into the crank case." He said he just had it tuned up. All plugs just changed. I dunno, I think it may be the FI, and just needs to be replaced. apparently the mechanic he is taking it to hasn't had anytime to look at it still...???
