Oil was nearly non-existent when I checked and i get a cloud of black smoke from the exhuast only when it has been on boost

engine misfires, I rev it and it sort of chugs up then just boosts fine, I let off and black smoke comes out

Help me, the blackpool trip was worth it though

Am I right in saying the black smoke was over fueling?

After looking at the state of my tail pipe im thinking that all the sensors on the exhaust system will need a thoughrough clean as my flamer spark plug isnt visible

I have also topped up the oil, but still have the problems

Done the search, but I can't seem to find an answer for all the syptoms

Im having a guess here, but ive seen a problem with a car that pumped out lots of soot (overfuelling) and that was an oil breather pipe which had come loose.
Any signs of oil anywhere else?
Id also say dont boot it until you find your oil loss problem which Id say was a priority over the overfuelling!

No leaking anywhere that is visable!

Had all the engine apart today, intercooler radiater and had it on stands to look underneath! Nothing, just grime underneath where my power steering leaked!
So ive had all the clips off and re-attached them!
Cleaned it all now so it will be easier to spot if its visible and it still leaks!

I topped up the oil to just under the full level and let it idle for 10mins but it still didnt work properly,
Now everything is back together it doesnt misfire and the black smoke has gone now. Gave the radiator and system a full flush too and replaced all the fluid. Not that it would help! Thought may aswell while the rest is in pieces!

Cheers tony, think a clip must have been loose!
