JTStarlet92 Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 So after my bad earth incident, I got the car running but last night I had to do a 20 mile journey to get it mot'd and there was thick black smoke out the exhaust all the way and the car wasn't accelerating very well! I'm thinking its something major? Its attending its first show of the year on the back of a trailer Quote Link to post Share on other sites
