Hey guys do you know what causes a bit of a black smoke coming out on acceleration after stopping? How bad is it? :confused:

black smoke is too much fuel being burnt, blue smoke means that you are burning oil, have you noticed your gas mileage going down? if not, then its probably oil, and if its oil, dont worry about it because just about every other V6 mx3 burns some oil.
You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a White guy, the best golfer is a black guy, The Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the US of arrogance, and Germany doesn't want to go to war
