You have a rich running condition......Take the truck to a mechanic and have it fix before you ruin your converter....This will also help the crappy gas mileage you've been getting lately

Wow. that is very vague. No year, make, model, or engine size?

If there is black stuff coming out of the tailpipe, is it smoke, liquid, goo etc? Maybe you need to get a pipe brush and clean the pipe out...LOL.





Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.
