- I really appreciate all the help I got from you guys.
- You all pointed me tords carbon build up--That is in fact what it was.
- A lot of you suggested stuff you put in your fuel system. I'm sure
- that works. But while searching for this "stuff" that you suggested, one
- person at bedford auto parts made a suggestion. he told me to trust him on
- this one. He said to rev up the engine to 3000 and pour water into the carb.
- I didnt like the idea at first but then I thought a little bit. I gave it
- a shot. Near the end of my exaust pipe was totally black--It worked perfect!
- -thanks again!!
