combustion problems 140-160 1968

posted by  someone claiming to be volvo1 on  Wed Jun 8 05:52 CST 2005 [RELATED]

I initially noticed a lot of carbon build-up on my sparkplugs about three months ago. I have since rebuilt the head and I am still having the problem (Plugs get black right away) It does not appear to be oil, and I have not noticed any blue smoke from my exhaust. The car runs rough, especially when it is cold (very choppy acceleration and the weber carb backfires). Where should I look to remedy the problem?

Thanks again,

Chris (68 142S)
