hi guys im wondering if any of you could help me out. i have a 1990 240 with the stock sohc. the only upgrade to it is a 2.5 in exhaust with a stock muffler. right nw i am having problems passing smog. i have a CEL code 13 which is for the engine temp sensor circut and thats it. also when i touch the throttle it sputters and hesitates before it revs up. it also gives a puff of black smoke. also while out having fun in it tonight it started bogging and i wasnt able to get any power. if anyone could help me with any of this crap i would really appreciate it. thanks

Well all i can say is start looking at the engine temp sensor related items; replace the sensor since its cheap and if you still have the problem then start testing the wiring. GL
