i drove back from orlando to tampa yesterday in my 96 mustang v6.

well i got gas about a half tank in between. Parked the car and then started it this mornign and it sounded like it was struggling to stay alive. alotta jerking and chuggling. Saw a darker smoke come out the exhaust so it seemed. So i turned it off and started again. same thing not as bad. Then i did it a 3rd time this time it smoothed out. Almost sounded like a diesel engine or a deep v8 idleing. My guess was bad gas. whats your guess? i drove 15 miles to work just fine like it used to run.

I had this problem back in 1998 with my mustang. i tried new pulgs, rotor, oxygen sensor, new spark plug wires to no avail. I noticed that the "smoke" was not smoke, it was un-burnt gas fumes. I also noticed that my gas milage was really bad as well. While checking stuff under the hood with the Haynes manual, I smelled gas, I found that there was gas in my oil system. I took it in to the dealer to get looked at. They found one of the fuel injectors stuck full open. You may want to have the fuel rail pressure checked at a mechanic, they can do a key-on, enging-off pressure check of your fuel line. If the pressure bleeds down it could be a bad fuel injector or a bad fuel pressure regulator.

Sounds like your plugs might be fouled. Or you might just need a tune up. Bad gas can make your engine run rough. Any time I have an issue like this, I do a tune up and include spark plugs. Then check the idle settings. Good luck to you.

the mild hadn’t grew to change into eco-friendly on the intersection on Canion street beforehand the taxi-cabs ought to hurry previous me as if on a excitement-journey. “Arr, shall we bypass it human beings!” I kept declaring as I took yet another sip of espresso that tasted like an previous ash tray. After an eternity of residing hell, the line mild finally grew to change into eco-friendly and site visitors replaced into flowing.

It replaced into undesirable sufficient that i replaced into operating late for artwork yet I had to get residing house and toddler-sit down for my sister Lucy’s evil toddler who continually has to chuck a rubber duck at my face and snicker at the same time as I sit down there and wipe the blood from my eyes.
