SILVER Star
I've read some interesting threads on here and perused the engine manual for my B motor, but I couldn't find what I was looking for, so I thought I'd ask the experts.
When my B motor is running well, it's running rich with a steady stream of black smoke out the exhaust when under "hard" acceleration. I'm at 6,500 feet and plan to be up between 10,000 and 12,000 feet this summer regularly. I don't have an HAC yet nor do I have a pyrometer, but I know it's running rich. I've read somewhere that I can reduce the fuel going into the cylinders manually. And while it's not nearly as good as a functioning HAC, it would better than having it run rich all the time until said HAC can be procured. My old Toyota PU had the HAC installed and it was a godsend up here in the mountains.
Meanwhile, I don't know how to lower the amount of fuel being delivered. Can someone help a brother out?
