Grayish/Black Smoke

[87Turbo-TWE4]

I forgot what this means. It does it sometimes at idle. Car is sluggish on acceleration and has a rough idle. Wants to stall at stops. Is this brake fluid or something worse?

Too many variables to do more than guess. I would initially say TPS is probably off. Set it properly (.40v - .42v idle to 4.55v - 4.85v WOT) and see what happens. Then reset the IAC.

I checked the smoke again and it's blue/white. When I give it throttle at idle I can hear a rattling coming from the turbo. I guess it's time to get a new turbo. Great.....
