Hello eveyone,

 

Not knowing much about carb tuning I thought I'd see if anyone here has seen this before.

 

While reving and sometimes when idling white smoke comes out the pipes. It’s not bluish and doesn’t smell like oil I don’t think it coolant.

 

Also, after the car sits over night and I start it up again in the mornings, it spatters wet carbon out the pipes – quite a bit of it.

 

I've got a 1404 Edelbrock – 292 with ’57 4v intake. I replaced the metering rod with the one recommended in the other old forum.

 

It seems to be running okay, but am I running it too lean or something? Can a carb adjustment improve this?

 

Thanks.

Ed
