Maybe it won't be too much of an issue. I tune it up regularly, Italian style. In fact, I have very little black smoke, now, at all. The po didn't do this, I am sure. Since I removed the EGR for experimental purposes, I've noticed better and better acceleration. In fact lately she is actually shifting at the indicators on the speedo, which she never did before.
