If I let it sit for awhile it will start then run for a bit then start sputtering and black smoke then die out. If I do get it runing sometime it will run longer by appling gas but won't idle.
I recently changed plugs wires, fuel filter, Checked fuel pressure steddy at 50 psi, no engine light and no codes from obd II scanner.


Can someone please help,I'm dead in the water come monday with no car?
How many miles do you have on it? Fuel system sounds OK but check throttle body area. MAF sensor, IAC (Idle Controller), etc. On MAF just disconnect it. Other areas possible fuel injector or vaccum leak (intake manifold).

If you can keep it running for a while check the exhaust coming out the rear for flow because a clogged CAT convertor could do this. Good luck!
