Just got my carbs back from Mike Nixon. Popped em in, and fired her up in the backyard and she sounds so much better.... Except after about a minute smoke started coming out from under the carbs.... shut her down and thought maybe the little bit of grease I put on the manifold boots is burning off.... Finally got her rolled out to the front drive and fired her up again, and more smoke. Not enveloped, but enough that I shut her down.
No flames, but looks like there gas on the #1 cylinder.
I'm thinking maybe I didn't get the #1 carb set fully into the manifold boot, or didn't get it tight enough....
Anybody experience this?
No matter what this weekend the plastic is coming back off and I'll pop the carbs off to see what I can see. But hoping someone else has experienced something similar so they can say "check this dummy!"
