Its a long shot but... If you have a leak in the exhaust before the oxygen sensors, the sensors will think the engine is running lean. The computer will compensate (from incorrect input data) by increasing fuel delivery, causing the air/fuel mixture to go rich. If the engine runs super rich the exhaust will be black, and very noticable when you accelerate.

Will a hole in the header cause smoke exhaust?

If you have an O2 sensor, your O2 sensor will not read exhaust gases properly which may cause the ECU to make the engine run rich. Yes. Holes close to the engine in the headers may also cause unburned fuel to ignite in the headers causing backfiring.

What could cause blue smoke from the exhaust of a Peugeot 205 GTI 16 on a J plate and how do you fix it?

it could be the exhaust valve oil seal wants replacing! blue smoke means oil is comming down the valve stem and going into the exhaust: black smoke is where oil is beening burnt in the cylinders i valve stem seals are a common problem on 205 gti's. most likely that. remember you can replace stem seals without removing the head by feeding string into the bore throigh the spark plug hole, turning the engine (BY HAND!!!) to comress the string against the valve and then removing the valve spring as normal. saves loads of time and countless hundred pounds! just remember to keep the end of the string dangling out the plug hole otherwise its a real sod to get out!!!

No. If no matter enters a black hole it will actually slowly lose mass and shrink via Hawking radiation. A black hole will gain mass if matter fals into, which will cause the event horizon to grow.

Can a hole in the muffler cause a car to smoke?

Just having a hole in the muffler won't cause smoke to form. Any smoke coming from an engine is caused by either environment changes (white smoke while engine is warming up), or an engine burning oil (blue smoke). Sometimes even a bad catalytic converter can cause smoke. The hole in the muffler simply gives the smoke a way out. Trying looking for external oil leaks or checking he oil level occasionally to see if it is burning oil. You may see water vapor is there is a hole in the muffler but it wouldn't last long once the muffler warms up and the moisture is burned off. She shouldn't see actual smoke unless there is a problem with the engine.


Can you drill a hole in exhaust pipes?

You can drill a hole in anything as long as you have a strong enough drill bit and drill. But why would you want to drill holes in your exhaust? The exhaust piping is there to route exhaust gases away from underneath the car so they don't pool up underneath your car and seep into the cabin and cause a variety of health problems.
