ok...pulled idle jet and the marking is 50. i 'm told, and it would seem i'm running VERY rich. when she starts up there is what appears moisture (maybe fuel) that spits out the tail pipes when rev'd. also smokey (equally) out both exhausts. i'll run around the block a few times until hot and when i return the smoke is gone and no more moisture out pipes.
i assumed the 50 was on the smaller end of the scale based on other post so why am i running so rich? can i/should i go smaller than 50? what else would cause her to run rich? other than the above she does seem to be running well however i did notice the jet appeared partially clogged already (just blew them all out). I assume i need to change/add fuel filter or something. FYI - 74' 2.0 w/ weber 40's |
