OK -- tech call going out to the SC experts -- car is a bone stock 1990 SC 5-speed.
Was cornering an off ramp which was bumpy with road patches -- no potholes, just lumpy/bumpy -- wasn't going too fast, but entertainingly aggressive in speed.
Suddenly car started bucking, and not wanting to run above 2500 RPM, nor would it idle without quitting -- could restart without too much cranking, but would have to keep throttling the pedal to prevent it from stalling.
RICH smoke is pouring out of the exhaust pipes, and it sucked down my fuel during my ride home (started giving me trouble 15 miles from home -- managed to limp it into the driveway) by several gallons -- no gas smell under hood or outside of car, not overheating, oil pressure is perfect, and the check engine amber light never came on.
Suggestions as to what to look for? I am not as savvy on these computer controlled cars as I am with carburetor tech, though I learn fast -- car acts like the float is stuck in a carburetor, except of course it is fuel injected.
Appreciate any thoughts you might have regarding this problem.
