Did you use the colortune on cylinders 1, 2 and/or 3?
Obviously your front cylinders are too rich. Might be that
you have a float valve that is not closing or some such.

Do you still have the secondary butterflies in your manifold?
If so, do your carbs have the arms to open them?
Don't worry too much about the needles, this is a gross tuning
problem. Both types were used on the same carbs about the same time
on B18 engines.

I use 2 colortunes on my 164 - one in cylinder #2 and one in cylinder #5.
Saves a LOT of time.
