That doesn't sound like a DCOE or an SK.

Thanks for all the recommendations.
I made an adjustment to my accelerator pump. . I had it up too far. Turn
righty is lessy and turn lefty gives more pump out. No doubt it was too
far to the rich side when I would accelerate. My problem, if a little of
something is good, then more must be better.
I have also been keeping my foot out of it. . this last tank. Less sloppy
double clutches turd gear to second. . . and it looks like my mileage has
jumped up considerably. I will know when I fill it up again.
Although the car runs smooth I think that it would be a good idea to
eventually pull the head and have hardened seats installed. I have never
checked compression . . need to get a better compression checker and do so.
I have not been as consistent as I should be adding lead additive.
More to come on what I get from this next tank fill.
Thanks so much for all the good info.
