when i step on the acceleration pedal, black smoke pours out of my muffler. i think its clogged. other times when i press on the acceleration, the dark smoke isnt as bad. sometimes its clear smoke. i've checked the oil and other miscalanious stuff in my engine, and for the most part everything looks alright. i have a 1998 mitsubishi eclipse gs. what do you guys think could be causing this problem? could it really be clogged?

So my 1995 220,000 mile Nissan Maxima's check engine light has come on. And it is having trouble starting. It sort of sounds like the battery is dead, you know barely turning over, until it finally kicks in. It seems to help if I turn off the lights and radio. The mechanic says it is not the battery. But it is a problem with the computer chip and it will cost nearly $700 to repair. Does this sound in the ball park. I don't know much about cars so I try to go with what the mechanic says usually, but this is a lot of money for me.

I know I would have to buy/ make compatable engine mounts for this engine and that I would have to replace the fuel system and electrical system and suspention and axels. I would also have to take the F250 transmission and transfer case, possibly make my own drive shafts in the machine shop, but could it be done? I am thinking about taking the guts out of a 2006 F250 that is in my neighbor hood. The guy bent the frame ten ways to sunday, but all parts are still in one peice, the thing still starts great, just bent at about 45degrees. would the motor actually fit in the ranger?

I have a 1998 Dodge Grand Caravan SE that we just changed the timing belt and water pump on. Now it isn't getting fuel to the injectors...the fuel is up to the engine...I was told that there should be a reset switch for the fuel system somewhere on the vehicle...Is there one and where is it located?

When it's hot, I turn the ignition, and it just clicks, or it will seem like it's starting, and it'll just die or stall. Sometimes it takes anywhere from 5-10 minutes sitting there before it actually starts and runs. I've heard it's the main fuel relay. Any suggestions?

In terms of stress on your car, 10 miles of city driving is equivalent to about how many miles of highway driving? I am just looking for a rough estimate. Thanks!

I was at the emergency room when I left I got to the parking lot security was there waiting on the police. So they already know about it. when they bust out my window they tried to unhook my alarm but I guess it took too long seeing that my alarm was sounding off. So they popped my hood and ripped the horns off the alarm so they can take my music and everything else that was in my truck all the way down to my shades.I think when they snatched the horns off that might have messed up my lights or either the switch that turns my lights on and off they only work with my highg beams on. I hope this is enough detail I know some people wasn't too clear on what I wrote. Thanks again in advance.

I've had to get my 2005 Mustang jumped at least four times in 1.5 years. A couple of guys have told me that it should started regulary (how often?) because it has so much electronic components. So I can't let it sit for more than a week without it going COMPLETELY dead. Been to the dealership twice and they can find nothing wrong. Thoughts?
