What's the model year and mileage? What mods (if any) have you made prior to the issue?

MAF and O2s have the largest effect on fueling.
also ignition problems can let fuel into the exhaust.
leaky injectors can make you run rich enough to blow black.


you need some kind of DETAILS... your post is far too vauge to get any real help.. and this is NOT advanced tech.

You need to take a PCM log, and post in the PCM & Diagnostics section.
