Message: [QUOTE="Wamphyri, post: 1315073, member: 5807"] Well my ol beast Matilda just about left my wife at the side of the road last night, but she struggled knocked bagged and managed to get her home before dieing in the driveway. Now today she starts fine, takes one or two extra turns to get her going but the black smoke bellowing out of the exhaust, created a WWIII smoke cloud to hide the neighbors house down the road. Pretty sure NASA just reported a SOS cloud coming from my house. Anyways my FICM is a bit over a year old, but the last few months I was having major battery issues. Originally I thought I had a short some place and it was draining my batteries. Turned out that both my batteries gave up the go. So they where replaced and all was well till yesterday. I have read over time that dead batteries hurt ficm's, if thats true then I'll go waste my time and trouble shoot that. If not what else would cause a massive fuel dump to create the black smoke. (I let it run for about 5 minutes and it was still smoking black) [/QUOTE]
