Got it home and let it cool down and pulled the carb and manifold. There was
a puddle of gas in each port on the head.

Larry,
This is unusual - I have been able to black plugs and produce black smoke with
a very overly rich DCOE but have never wet plugs (other than starting).
Obviously the jetting is rich somewhere - don't give up yet.
The puddle of gas is not as unusual (depends how big the puddle is though) as
you might suppose though I would check that the float needle is shutting off
properly and that there is not dirt in it. Also I forget what size of float
needle you have in it but if it is too large you will get flooding you should
be ok with 2.00 but could try a 1.75 OR maybe the float level is too high.
