My 68 302 stinks, makes your eyes water and shows a light smoke from each cylinder bank at idle. My plugs look dark (rich) and I can't seem to get it to change. I have an Edelbrock 1405 with a performer rpm air gap intake. I am running a Competition cams 280H stick which has a rough idle to it. I have tried the whole idle mixture screw thing, I have adjusted idle mixture by vacuum and I have advanced initial timing in an effort to stop it.
Do I have an intake leak? Could it possibly be my miniscule PCV valve (it seems ok). I already did the propane torch trick of shooting propane around the manifold and in the crankcase to see if I could determine any shifts in idle to no avail.
I'm at my wits end this smelly wretch and tired of my clothes stinking every time I'm around this car. Any suggestions? |
