Any chance this is a 72?

If so (actually for any year), when you get in the car and turn the 
key ON you will hear a relay click and then another click ~1 
second later.

Do you hear both clicks? If not, then there is a wire improperly 
connected on your starter which is making your engine run rich.

Let me know. I can tell you what to do to fix this easily.
