ok my vl used to spit black **** out the exhaust and it really pissed me off cause it stained the driveway and the back of my car when this was happening i posted on here about it and a few other people said they had the same problem. so i thought id post what was wrong with mine its pretty simple really me and my dad tested the afm today and found out the car was running very rich this caused it to use alot more petrol than it should and also the black carp so we adjusted the screw on the afm till the lights on the self diagnostic thingy flashed together and now no more blak crap, better fuel economy and runs alot better.

im sure some1 will say oh i coulda told u that or something but at the time no1 could tell any of us that had the problem( or bothered to tell us).

Is clockwise Rich???

yes im pretty sure clockwise makes it richer

yeah is it just that screw on the outside of the afm that adjusts fuel mixtures or wat???

yep - thats the one Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
