When I start my car (a 1972 Lincoln Mark IV) a plume of thick, foul smelling black smoke comes out the exhaust. About ten seconds later my car stalls, I start it back up for it to repeat this process about 3-4 times until I can finally get it going. It also stalls whenever I change gears. Why is there so much black smoke billowing out the exhaust? Why does it keep stalling a few seconds after you start it?
This car was given to me by a close relative. I don't have the money right now to get it looked at by a mechanic.
My car also backfires quite often.
What could be causing this?
