Just a quickie (hehe i said quickie)

Black smoke from the exhaust (like black, not dark blue) is fuel? ie running too rich?

If my memory serves me right, Black is fuel, Blue is oil and White is water.

Cheers!

Probably has something do to with the wild cam

I've got to do an oil change soon, and I'll reset the ECU. And then check it for error codes.

I might need to pull my finger out and MSII it
