Call me crazy, but the backfiring thru the carb sounds like a timing issue to me. You may want to check that as well. Improper timing can also cause improber burning of the fuel mixture which can lead to soot on the plugs. I have very little experiance with Weber carbs, so this may or may not be relevant. But its certainly worth looking into.
