Guys,
Thursday I picked up my car after getting the CTSC installed w / high boost kit. It drove fine till Saturday and then the SC belt broke. Also earlier in the day when I was driving a friend of mine following behind said he saw a cloud of black smoke from the exhaust when I dowshifted and hit the throttle. Both incidents happened at different times.
1. Is the black smoke being caused by the air/fuel not being correct, the autometer A/F gauge always shows rich when the car is at boost. Or is something else causing this. (I also have Taittec exhaust and headers)
2. When the SC belt broke, the EPS, ABS and Battery light went on in the car. Also I have no power steering. Is this a normal occurance when a belt breaks. The cars runs but luckily I was only a 1/2 km from home and parked the car immediately to avoid any damage.
Is my car damaged or is this what happens when the belt breaks.
I'll call Acura tommorrow and pray it's just a broken belt.
Any advise is appreciated.
Johnny.
