i haven't really noticed a smell, but i'm probably used to it by now. It's definitely a rich mixture, you can tell where the car was running because it leave two black circles on the ground under the tailpipes lol.
so I'm thinking of getting a new Map sensor and both o2 sensors and see what happens.1991 Mustang GT stock 5.0 HO. dual flows. daily driver

black = carbon = rich mixture. Blue-grey smoke is oil, possibly indicating blowby. It might go along with a greasy film in the tailpipe if its extremely bad.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).

EDIT: d'oh, I saw you say "below" the tailpipes. Didn't know the stuff was dripping down out of it. Forget I said anything.Last edited by 1990LTD; 10-11-2010, 05:46 PM.sigpic

I did notice the smell of gas lol, but the smoke has disappeared... at least for now. I also noticed it takes a while for the idle to drop down. it idles at 1k when it settles downLast edited by '91stangGT; 10-11-2010, 05:59 PM.1991 Mustang GT stock 5.0 HO. dual flows. daily driver

just to confirm here, what ECM program code are you using? If its an A9*, then it definitely sounds like the BAP shit itself. Otherwise it sounds like a speed-density brain with a bad or unhooked MAP. Same sensor, just does a different job depending on management. 'course if it is an SD brain, that isn't the right thing for a 91 Mustang.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).

ok guys. I just put in a new Map sensor, ECT sensor and sender. Idiot lamp is no longer lit up. I grabbed the codes again and I got 21,33,41,81,87. I replaced the ECT thats on the passenger side of the engine, not the one tucked under the intake. Saturday I'm going to do an oil change and replace the oxygen sensors, I would do it tomorrow but I guess there's a wicked storm coming tonight.
I'll keep you guys posted. Thanks everyone!1991 Mustang GT stock 5.0 HO. dual flows. daily driver
