Random ploofs of smoke
I just noticed that under wot acceleration usually in 4th gear there will be a large ploof of black smoke then it goes away then it comes back, it keeps going on and off. It's not really a problem but I was just wondering if that's a sign it might be time for some injectors and/or pump.- Daniel McCurdy
