Did you try to splice directly into the wires, or did you use a fields harness? If they see a bunch of jacked up wires you could be in trouble.

ok so now when i was driving the car to the dealership today and my buddy was driving behind me and he said that the smoke stoped comming out. and the exhaust is starting to not smell like fuel anymore. they said that they cant see the car till wensday. it doesnt seem like the car has any drivibilty issues. so i'll have them run the test soon and let you guys know.

good sign that the smoked stoped, but i wonder what caused it in the first place, hopefully they wonbt find anything. still do a compression check to make sure.
