jacob, its hard to say without looking at your car first. But, I would say check the MAP sensor vacuum line. When this pops off, it usually resluts in poor idle, and tons of black smoke. I disconnected mine to see what would happen, and it wouldnt run at all. So, check that. Its the little black box on the drivers side firewall with a connector and a vacuum line going to it. good luck

yep, check the map sensor.. it is next to the brake master cyl on the driverside firewall.
