running rich??

Hey guys. I just put a new 22re in and after about 500 miles the thing is starting to give a little poof of black smoke out the tailpipe when I rev it. Any idea?

Also: Anyone had trouble with a universal antenna grounding out on the body? I bought one the other day and it works fine until I try to tighten it down to the mounting hole.

Thanks.

oh forgot to mention that I have an engine code that says my O2 sensor is bad. Maybe this explains the smoke??

Also, too much ignition advance will puff black smoke out the pipe when it starts to ping and detonate.
