Recently my car has been blowin out thick black smoke clouds from the exhaust like a turbo car would......most likly Im burning oil but why???

It smokes when I start to pull off, reverse, driving normal and stop and it stink not like the normal test pipe smell its worse......I dont know what it could be

I have a test pipe with custom exhuast piping....but It was never this bad when I installed the test pipe.....it started smoking bad about 1 - 2 weeks ago

I changed the oil yesterday and is still smokes bad...also my valves need to be adjusted ....what that be the cause of this whole thing???

I dont know If I should keep driving it or not

Help me out fellas

 

black smoke isn't oil... blue smoke is oil. black smoke is fuel (running rich) correct me if i am wrong though.

a test pipe cannot cause any sort of smoking. & how/why do your valves need to be adjusted? you said it wasn't this bad... why is it smoking in the first place? you need to ask yourself what you did before and after...

Burning oil=bluish tint, almost white. nowhere near black.

Black=fuel.

 

Thanks for clearing that up. Post has been edited accordingly
