So we have ruled out a leaky AT vacuum modulator I guess.  Do the compression test like Steven suggested as a preliminary piston ring seal check.  But also look into fuel mixture.  You're probably running rich.  Others here will have to help with the Webers.  

And I think I have read here on the list about leaky heater systems that can draw exhaust fumes inside, but others will have to chime in on this, too.  Good luck.
