Hot start, leaking injectors, or compression.

Man.. I hate to flame.. Cant... Help...

Since there are so many new people in the RX world all the time, the mods mention that you should search to avoid asking stupid questions over and over. When I was new to this BB in like 04 or whatever, this question came up every week if not more often.

The car is flooding. You have leaky fuel injectors. For the fix, look in the stickys.

if itgs smoking out the tail pipes while driving or at idle or even any other thime the car starts, i vote its running to rich and floods out. next time it happens, pull the egi fuse from the main fuse box in the engine bay, crank it over a few times and then try to restart it.
