You're running too rich. Preludes naturally do this.
It's also possible that there's an issue - but black smoke is normal (as with all sports/sporty cars really..)
Check your air filter.
agreed, if its excessive then clean the air filter as mentioned, clean intake, tb blah blah maby an o2 issue. could be several things
IS your oil level low ?

What oil you running. Try something maby a lil thicker. 10-40 ect! Also a full synthetic will take longer to break down. Meaning wont burn as easy and longer oil life. Id still do ever 10G MAX though!
guys he said black smoke not blue/white
Your rings are probably ****ed H series are known for this

black smoke = petrol = running rich
blue smoke = worn piston rings = oil
white smoke = petrol mixing with water
Try resetting the ECU and the car will re learn . plus What the guys said, its just running rich

oil burning is quite obvious if your looking for it, and at vtec the ecu also changes the fuel map and its common to see the car run rich here. cars arnt ment to drink oil, i think your confusing it with your lawn mower.Quote:
