Well I've got all 4 plugs a light shade
of brown after using the Haynes
manual procedure for adjusting
the mixture. I've taken more anti-
clockwise turns on the adjustment
than I care to count, but I guess
after plugging an "1/8th inch vacuum
leak" it has to require a little adjusting.
I don't have a Colortune kit so I guess
I'll do the best I can using the plug color
as a guide for the time being. Any tips
or suggestions? Thanks again for all the
help!
Larry
