smoky 1800 1973

posted by  someone claiming to be volvomex on  Tue Apr 2 18:30 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I just purchased this car which was parked for 5 years, it started but, it smokes (black smoke), specially when I rev it up. checked compression and got 150,140, 140, 140, changed spark plugs, cap and rotor, any ideas ?????. Idle is rough and I set timing to 20 degrees, vacuum line connected to distributor. any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
