pShenk Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 this is a picture of the bung plug removed from my Stucci crossover. I also notice that the inside of my pipes are quite black... would this be an indication of fuel mixture problems? Or would it be about normal?

helicopterjim R.I.P. Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Put it back in your bung! Now!! I don't ever want to see it again!! It's not normal!! .... unless it's your exhaust pipe. Then it's not too far from normal. Relax ... then the bung will go in easily .... I hope.

I think your mistaking this thread for the other thread about variously colored rear ends..."Another point of view" FWIW black is normal and beautiful! If it was ashy white, or the outside is cherry red when hot, you should worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nogbad Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Where you have a mixture of gases containing CO and CO2, the proportion of CO in the mix is temperature dependent. The equilibrium equation is C + CO2 <----> 2CO. As temperature falls, the amount of CO2 relative to CO rises and carbon is precipitated out. As the exhaust gases hit the cold headers and crossover, they cool, the equlibrium shifts and carbon is precipitated on the cold surfaces. It's normal. That's what I mean......
