very rough and smells

Post by safariman28 »

:canuk: My 95 safari when warm idles rough, smells of fuel in the cab, and when sitting idling there is carbon on the pavement not just a little bit either I mean a foot by foot patch got any Ideas (no cat if this help) but this started before i remove that let me know what you think.


maybe I will just pull the motor if repair is to much.
