thanks bean dip . i did raise the level on floats because the fuel was not over the jets and below the bridge when the jet/nozzels are pulled all the way down in the choke position. from what i understand this must be, after turning the car over coil disconected. i had it at that level . i started the car and it still smoked fuel from the tail pipe . so i pulled the suction cambers off removed the pistons, screwed the fuel mixture all the way back to lean and pulled the jets/nozzels all the way down to the choke position and the gas was again not over the jets and below the bridge.which make's me thing the gas is at a richer mixture on the neddle from the moment i start the car .then it should be . and get's worse as it revs up. i know the fuel pump didn't keep the gas at the postion i set the float to .i didn't alter the jets /nozzels which ever you prefer to call . or the neddles i simple droped the neddles as far down in the nozzels as i could for a leaner mixture at idel. it seems to me when you ckoke the car you are moving the fuel down on the needle to dump more gas for a faster start.
