My car sucks!!!

Ok you all know the issues i have been having with my car. Now get this you know it was blowing black smoke. So what i did was change out the ECU and it started blowing white smoke. Changed it back to the old ecu and its blowing black smoke again. What in the hell is going on? Do I have little gremlins in my car now?

After taxes i'm getting megasquirt to fix the issue maybe....

when i get mine i'll have a friend install it. Linluv83 has it on his 73 240z. I'm thinking of getting the upgraded version to megasquirt 2... when 3 comes out, it should have the feature to tell you about each individual cylinder. So if you have predetonation in number 3 it will tell you when you hook it up to a laptop.

Gosh, for your ECU to be blowing white or black smoke, you musta primed her up really good already.

Yeah, you're either leaning out or coming on too strong to your girl - you gotta remember that she needs equality - that is, a balance of breath and go-go juice - otherwise you're gonna give the poor girl the hiccups, make her breathe like a wild dragon or get her cat pregnant. Trust me, the cat will not produce kittens, but might meow a horrible rotten egg breath.

LOL! Sorry, I just couldn't resist. If you didn't understand what I said - I'm sorry. There was a point there though.
