Hey guys, ive got a 94 vitara (g16a) thats been blowing some black smoke, so it's burning to much fuel.
would adjusting the carby help this? or could it be something else?

and if it is adjusting the carby what screws do you have to turn??

thanks in advance!

Dirty spark plugs / poor timing?

Black smoke = fueling issue. Check if the choke flap is full open in the carb.
