How mutch does your car smoke?

[Tac]

Since the sun is in a much different spot during my trip to work and my way home I'm able to see more smoke than I thought. Last night I did adjust the so called smoke screw. I did a 1/4 turn counter clockwise (facing the pump) it seem to help. I didn't feel any loss of acceleration (not like the thing is a rocket) and I didn't have to adjust the idle. Anyone know if I'm decreasing the fuel intake or adding air to the fuel mixture?

left and out decreases fuel. maybe you aren't noticing performance decrease since you are non turbo along with your driving route/style.

i won't drive non turbos anymore since they are a safety hazard on our freeways.

1/4 turn out in my experience on my cars was no good. i was driving a route where there was a big windy up/down hill for almost 20 miles and i noticed issues with second gear pulling and i was so used to driving these cars it was just negative across the board.

i am pedal to the medal with my 79 rabbit right now, long stretches of highway at 85-90mph. i pretty much get 43mpg all day long.

i don't care about any smoke unless it was thick enough to obstruct views which it never has been. i suppose i could get pulled over by the chp but i'm not aware of any laws or smog that they could pin on me.

Thanks for the reply damac. Yes it is close to all highway going throw semi high populated area. I do about 57-75 try to keep it at 57-60. It's nice to know what I'm effecting. I like I said before this is no rocket.
