Well spitting black from a 2.8 is an over fuel issue. First thing to check is coil and a tune up.
Next up is check for a bad O2 sensor, the best way to do that is to check with a scan tool. However you are over there and I am over here, so I can't help with my scan tool.
I would give the car a good tune up and see if that helps.
The O2 sensor controls how much fuel and the Coil, Pickup Coil, Ignition Module control the spark. |
