[TR] TR3 H6 Carbs Running Rich

The pistons both appear to slide freely.
Where can these things leak internally?
The jets are brand new. The needles look good as well.
The car seems to run well, but starts a little odd and has a
lopey idle. It smokes, which also shows that it is running rich.

Worth a try ... but IMO you've got something else wrong, like
internal leaks
or worn jets or maybe binding pistons.
