Re: [T3] [T3} Carby Back fire


Yep, done comp test. #3 120psi and #4 115psi.  I guess that eliminates valve
problems unless it only occurs when hot, as I did the test cold.  Might have
to try it again hot.  Spark plugs very black and fluffy considering they've
done less than 10miles since new.  This would support the running rich idea,
right?  OK, so what do I check in the carbs?  How do I adjust the mixture?
I didn't adjust anything in the carbs, left all linkages the same length as
they were, just installed a rebuild kit.  I even reused the old needle
valves as the new ones wouldn't let any fuel into the bowl.  How do you that
check the fuel level in the bowl is correct?
