My 65 is still running a little rich. It has an Edelbrock 650 Thunder AVS carb model number 1806. Its enough so that I get fuel residue on the outside of the exhaust tips and the bumper gaurds. The car runs really well though.
After I go somewhere I can wipe my finger inside the tail pipe and my finger is damp and sooty. There is raw fuel inside the tail pipe. I went on a 20 mile drive to my friends house and after I got there we did this test and got the same results. It was a warm day too.
I've never had a car leave fuel residue on the bumper gaurds before.
The exhaust always smells rich even when its hot outside and the car is warmed up. Alot of people comment that the fumes are too strong. You can't stand anywhere near the rear of the car while its running for more than a minute or your eyes will burn.
I have looked at the plugs and they look fine.
I have also checked the choke multiple times and it is working properly.
Fuel pressure is 6 psi.
Here is a quick question. How long should it take the fuel pressure to bleed down after the engine is turned off?
I got this calibration kit. I think the jets need to be downsized a step. What size comes in it out of the box? Does anyone have any tips or advice for me?
