Whelp, I've been using 76 91 octane, which is premium... Timing is about 10deg... And I have the 6's... I've done the water "injection", as in pour (slowly) water into each of the carbs and let the black smoke billow out the back... If there's still black smoke coming out does that mean there's still more carbon? Or will there always be black smoke even when you've gotten rid of all the carbon? Cause I put a lot of water in there and then stopped, just because I thought I had done it long enough... But if the smoke is supposed to stop being black, then I have some more to do. But I've already tried that. Maybe the head has been shaved? who knows. I was just wondering if there was a quick fix. It's not that big of a problem, and I don't drive it much any more, being illegal and all.........
