Starts cold & runs ok, as engine warms up - begins to run
very rich, eventually so rich that exhaust smokes black &
engine loses power. Have checked CTS (tried replacing),
tried different ECU, checked power & grounds (cleaned),
tried running w-O2s disconnected. Exhaust system not
clogged. Any ideas? Thanks for any help. Rick Haley
