if your spark plugs aren't burning all the fuel will you get black smoke out the end. will an hks ignition amplifier take care of this?

If you're blowing black smoke, you probably have other problems besides weak spark. Find the problem, not the symptom, before you start trying to solve it.

Hmmm...yes, I think that black smoke is unburned fuel while white smoke is burnt oil.

white smoke is usually coolant and a grayish color is oil...

BTW if you are running rich, it could be bad O2 sensors.
