Lots of Black smoke???
Lots of Black smoke??? I've been noticing my car is smoking a lot. It seems every time I go fool boost it smokes like a freaken diesel engine. Do you guys think it might be time for some new spark plugs or do I have a bigger problem? Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks Bob. One quick question can I get those o2 sensors anywhere i.e (autozone) or is it factory only sensors. If you have the part number I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks again Andy

When is it going rich? If under load then is there any changes to the car recently? If at idle, check to make sure the map sensor is working by running a scan tool and checking the idle KPA, it should be in the 50 range.
No, it only seems to smoke under load eventhough my fuel pressure gauge hits 50...So who knows?? On another note I changed out the spark plugs the other day and found them to be some what burned. I'm trying to see if theres something I can compare them to. To see if I'm going lean or rich... Any help appreciated..

check o2 if u got a logger see if its cycling correctly other wise like they said start simple plugs ex.. seems like u are either unable to burn all the fuel in the combustion chamber or (which is less likley) seals in turbo are starting to go.. compression test wouldnt kill u either but seems more so related to fuel.
