Getting grey smoke when I pull from low revs, but only until the CHT gets above 200. Then, no smoke. I am running a bit fat on the idles (55's on a lightly cammed 2056). Any suggestions on what I should be looking for?

Check the plugs for what type of build-up they have, & cross reference to a color chart from many sources.

Thinking along those lines, but I have new rings. Will read the plugs. Runs well otherwise.
