Normally rich? My thinking is stoichiometric (14.7 gasolene) under normal driving and 12 at full throttle.

Default Re: exhaust tips

Shell gas must be different in this area. I have been using it for a while now. It is very competitively priced in my area and easily accessible and I still get black runs on my exhaust tips. I also run BP, same thing, black runny lines on the exhaust. Always, and I mean Always run Premium in a SRT6, stock or otherwise!

Now with that said, if I keep my foot out of it, the black is VERY minimal. If I crank on it, then the black gets much worse.

I think the only real way to minimize, if not eliminate the black tips is get a good tune and of course install an oil catch can.

I do have a a NW catch can and it did help a lot, but it did not eliminate the black exhaust tips.

I need to call Eurocharge and get a tune!

Cheers,
KrzyFast

All brands of gasoline cost the same here in Bowling Green unless somone hasn't matched the price leader. Up twenty cents per gallon this week.

Unleaded gas always burns black, lead is needed to whiten the tips and that aint happening today.Enjoy Woody
