Default Car turns off after it gets warm???Help!
Well like the title says guys my vette turns off after it gets warm.If I turn it on and leave it running it will stay on for about 30 mins. and then it starts to sputter a bit and chokes and dies but before it does it starts throwing black smoke.Any help you guys would throw at me?Thanks
