91 S10 2.8L runs rich and puffs BLACK smoke
I have a 91 s10 with a 2.8L 5spd (2wd) that runs quite rich and puffs black smoke when I shift under hard accel. And the exuast smells verry gassy. It seems to have plenty of power maybe a lil low.But it also gets BAD gas milage

Re: 91 S10 2.8L runs rich and puffs BLACK smoke
well it seems to be clearing up, the exuast no longer smells like gas, I changed the plugs and 2 looked like they got hit with a hammer (didnt happen in the engine) so that was part if it. But the exuast still smells rich. Could the computer just need time to reset or what I have 1/4 tank run out so far and I put some heet (water remover) in the gas and some injector cleaner. Should I just wait a tank and see if it clears up?

Check your air filter to make sure it's not plugged up.
