Hi Folks,
I've just taken the plugs out and noticed 3 and 4 had a white coloration.
This is strange because when I first got the car I rebuilt the carbs and have
not touched them since.
This was 9 years ago (wow) and about 17k miles. (about every 3 months I look
at the plug color - always has been a nice tan-brown)
So I richened the rear carb (for plugs 3 and 4) by two flats on the jet. Went
for a 10 mile drive and plug 4 color had changed to yellow!
So I richened the rear carb (for plugs 3 and 4) by two more flats on the jet.

So I richened the rear carb (for plugs 3 and 4) by two more flats on the jet
and leaned out front carb 1 flat (plugs 1 and 2 look a little rich)
Went for a 10 mile drive and here's what they look like now, left to right
plugs 1, 2, 3, 4:

So, the rear carb has been enrichened by a total of 6 flats and still no sign
of sootiness.
Car runs great.
Any idea whats going on? (If you have a suggestion would you mind emailing me.
I'm on Digest and was hoping to drive the car to my new job tomorrow.)
Cheers, Adrian TS 58324
