[QUOTE="BlackLightning998, post: 4842, member: 109"] [b]Jim - have a look at the thread on my 276 carbs running rich[/b] Hi Jim, If you search under technical advice on this Forum you will find a long thread where I recently had a front cylinder running rich after a changed throttle cable - plugs and carbs were discussed at length and you may find some of the advice helpful from my own experience. I finally (after a lot of plug changing) traced the fault to worn parts in the 276 - I replaced with a new needle, new needle jet (106) and new main jet (170) and this cured the problem. Burlen Fuel Systems were great - bought over the net and delivered next day - recommended. I am (on advice) running Denso platinum electrode plugs though I have electronic ignition - I think whatever type you use you should have projected electrode plugs which will stand a better chance of clearing. If you need any more information on how I sorted the problem beyond what you find on the thread - let me know. Regards Stuart [/QUOTE]
