I know the risk I am taking is stupid and unnecessary but yesterday an emergency required me to take the car. I know exactly what can happen w/a fuel leak but yesterday I had no other options available. I'm actually living on a remote island right now, if I was at home I would have done the o-rings myself but there are neither good mechanics/parts available where I am. I don't have time to fully explain the situation but basically yesterday I NEEDED to be somewhere important and had to take the car. I'm not an idiot that would drive this car around if I didn't have to.

The black smoke out the exhaust was what was confusing the hell out of me so thanks for answering that, I didn't know fuel would leak into the engine as well.
