Re: Had It With Charlene Blake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by v on 2/09/08

    Charlene: Plumes of blue smoke. Overly rich gas ratio on startup. IE:
    Flooding. Could be leaky injecters that continue to leak gas into the engine
    after the engine is shut down. Which has caused engine fire's in other brand
    vehicles. In inclosed garages. Even with the garage doors open (smartest move)
    if the engine catches fire unoticed. There goes the house! Seems like you have
    more than one issue with your vehicle. Sludge build up is due to heat, maybe
    you have alot of sensors not working like they should. Have your vehicle
    checked for trouble codes. And leaking fuel injecters.
