sounds like it's running super rich. How's your O2 sensor? How's your cat convertor? fuel mileage? cars performance?

usually checking the o2 sensor, if youve never replaced it in 100k+miles means just go ahead and replace it. And check the catalyst inside the catalitic converter? Something else that could cause rich is your air filter and throttle. Check those out yet?
Did you check your fuel lines?
