running rich

Phantom5oh · 03-19-2002, 03:25 PM

ok my brother's stock 95 GTS seems to be running rich... the tailpipes are coated with thick black carbon on the inside and he is having trouble starting it lately... i was thinking that maybe his temp sensor was gone causing the car to run rich, or maybe his O2 sensors were gone... the car has under 100k on it and was running great until last week when it started to give him trouble starting and the inside of his tails turned black... any ideas?

Any codes?

Na, no codes... thats why I am looking for a code scanner, to check the code memory and see if there were any within the last few days...

Gotcha. See my last reply to your code scanner post. When you get one, let me know.

Take care,
