I had and idea relating to my white tipped spark plugs.
Well recently i found an oil leak near my oil filter, so that could be causing my quart per 2 tanks problem.
Then for my spark plugs if my timing was too far advanced that would cause it to white tip, if im not mistaken, and also they burning of too much fuel would cause the smoke clouds when i got on it because all the excess fuel would be going thru the exhaust...

Is any of that possibly correct?

 

smoke = unburnt fuel

 

white = lean = too little fuel.

 

The more advance, the longer time to burn =all burned, no smoke. Burning hotter, plugs glassy. Will break ! engine.

Functional GXE will not allow that to happen: Knock Sensor detects ping and timing is retarded by ECU.

Blk smoke: TPS, ign cap, wiring etc... and then ! some

So i checked my timing today because i wanted to advance it, and it ended up that my car was off the chart. The timing has 7 clicks, mine was about two inches away from any click. Now my car runs really nice. who would have thought

...somebody had squirrels eating wires one by one, day by day under the hood. This forum raced to catch all that development...
