That used to be true, but I don't believe it is any more. Now I believe the
black only tells you it was too rich at some point (like you didn't push the
choke in quickly enough last year); without saying anything about whether it
is too rich now.
The difference is the lead no longer in the fuel; lead oxide is very white
(which is why it used to be used in paint).
