I was having a hard time getting the carbs tuned and I had a hard time getting the car started when cold too. I finally got running again today and tried to adjust carbs again only to find that two carbs would be pulling much harder than the other two at different throttle ranges. There didn't seem to be a way to get them synced correctly so I pulled plugs and found those two to be very heavy in carbon. Is that what was happening? Can someone explain why this was happening how it did?

did you use a sync tool?
you need to sync the carbs by measuring the air and there is also an adjustment to tune between barrels on the same side... but have you sync'd your linkage? are you using some type of snail to measure? |
