sounds like your car is running to rich, wipe you finger accross the end of the inside of the tailpipe and if there is black residue, your most likely running to rich, if you are, replace your oxygen sensors. and if thats not the problem, you have a gas leak somewhere, check the fuel lines going into the engine for any holes or cracks, good luck!
