black smoke

Jrock26584 · 10-01-2004, 05:48 PM

Well i have a 95Gt with about 107k on the odometer. Whenever I get on the gas, lets say accelerating to get on the interstate, really hard, there is like a rattling sound coming from the engine like something is tapping in there realll fast and black/grey smoke, hard to tell the color from the drivers seat, comes out the back. Whats my problem. It fells like it just looses power when its rattling like that. Its usually in the upper RPMs 3000+. Its almost like it wants to go faster but it doesnt. Any thoughts?

Well the black smoke is indicating your running rich under WOT. How technically inclined ar you as far as troubleshooting? If not much, I would take it to a local shop and have them diagnose it.
