  • exhaust smoke 2nd opinions

    Just realized I'm getting some smoke out of my exhaust. I think its rich fuel mix smoke. My o2 sensor recently died and I haven't replaced it yet. Looking for input to see if I'm right. check the short video. Thanks.

    i made a pixelcar for my sig but i'm too lazy to pm a moderator.

          It looks like the smoke is dark.......... not blue or white so my suggestion would be to do a complete tune-up

            I agree with boosted, a complete tune up would probably clean that up. White smoke or blueish smoke would be bad, but that wasn't bad in my opinion..

              On the other hand if you haven't done a compression test yet on this motor since owning it, it wouldn't be a bad idea. i would also do a leakdown test for shits and giggles. Doing these two things now could prevent a small problem from becoming a large one and both are very simple.

                Thanks everyone. I was thinking what you all diax but I wanted to make sure I wasn't way wrong. I plan on doing a compression test in the future. New plugs an oil change and a new o2 sensor are going to happen this weekend.
