car not running...

[RogueStatus]

Driving tonite,in the snow,a little hard until it shut off. Tried starting it and won't start unless I give it a little gas. When it starts I rev it a bit and get black puff of smoke from the exhaust (straight pipe) and then it dies. Unplugged the maf and putted home...any thoughts?

Ps...checked all hoses for fmic,and others,all tight

sounds like a boost leak to me id keep looking when the car is dry, or if you can do a pressure test.

Kyle, if you want to make the trek down to my shop in West Warwick tomorrow, let me know... I'd be glad to take a look at it for you...

I'll also be working on an S4 motor on the engine stand, which you may be interested in

You can go into boost without the MAF plugged in.
