Ok, I'm at a loss. I've been fighting with my TR3 running very rich for several years with black smoke spewing from the tailpipe. After my Buddy made fun of me this weekend I've decided to do something about it. I had my carbs rebuilt by a carb shop several years ago but they leaked so I took them apart and did them myself. My problem was that I could screw them all the way lean and it didn't seem to matter. I thought I figured it out last night when I noticed the jet never came up even with the bridge so I took pulled one of the carbs today to see if I did something wrong because the top of the jet as always slightly below the bridge. If I remove the top copper washer, the jet comes even with the bridge....but that obviously isn't right. I've looked at hours of video on YouTube and from the attached picture, I see the top of this guys jet is even with the bridge. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance,
