It starts right up, runs well but there's a lack power and on hard accelerations, there's more black smoke than usual. New oil leaks were getting worse. Well I see the light at the end of the...

    So by removing the line from the T fitting to the passenger airbag with the check valve resolve the issue, or did you just cap that line off? Per TM the line looks to be 503. Why incorporate this line if it's going to cause an abundance of dumped air?
