Long time no post!

Is this the one I sold you that had the fan switch give out?  If so, I
vote for replacing the headgasket (ok maybe do a compression test first)

Koabi no longer in Tucson

Subject: Long time no post!

It's been probably two years since I last posted.  Been too busy with
the 
daughters.  Daughter #1 is 4 and #2 is 2 now.  So I've been taking  pity
on my 
poor fleet of rocs that has been languishing in the yard.  I  charged up
the 
battery on my 86.5 16V and moved it around to where I can work on  it.
I'm sure 
I've forgotten too much about rocs over the past few years so  I'd like
to 
run a problem by y'all for some advice.  Here's what she's  doing:
 
Starts up just fine and runs fine while it warms up.  Once it starts
getting 
warm, there is an increase in "soot" in the exhaust and there's that  
"sweet/rich" smell to the exhaust.  When I rev it I get a lot of black
exhaust.  On 
the road it runs like a scalded ape, just with the black smoky  exhaust.

 
I'm leaning towards either the O2 sensor or a faulty DPR.  Am I on the
right 
track?
 
 
Tom in Tucson
