YO IM GETTIN PISSED NOW, my car started acting up earlier today, i was driving fine till i went home from the meet i went to today, the problem is, my car seems to be runnin really rich, blowing out black smoke at WOT, through all gears, the main problem is, when i hit boost or even give it full throttle my motor like studders and is really boggy, like its really flodded with gas or some shyt, could this have anything to do with the gas i got today?, cause i went to this exon to get gas, and it was really cheap for super (93), now my car does this, it never did it before, could i have really crappy gas like watered down and its making my car screw up?, im gonna try new gas tomorow cause its on E now, so ill see if that works, if not im gonna hafta do a boost leak test and change the plugs, SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME , GIVE ME SOME SUGGESTIONS OR IF YOU HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND FIGURED OUT WUT THE FAWK IS HAPPENING!

THANX :(
 
well let me see how this new gas works from a different gas station
 
yea cause these 1g's are notorious for leaking oil out of the oilcap all over the plug wires, but i never actually seen it get down there, but im gonna pop my plugs off tomorow morning and see if they are black.
 
ok well i couldnt stop thinkin about my car just sittin out there with a problem so i went out at like 2am drove around till i got on E so i could get rid of this gas, then i went to a good gasstation that i always get my gas from and drove around till 4am after that, and my car seems to be running really good now, lets just hope it keeps up
 
ok well i was driving to work today, and the same gd problem happening again!. its really pissing me off now, anyone in north nj that has a boost leak tester?, im not exactly sure how to make one nor use it very well,

well i think i know what the problem most likely is, i hooked the laptop up to the datalogger today and it said my coolant temp sensor was bad, i was wondering if this could be making my car run a like a piece of crap
