Have two questions that i think people here may know off hand...
1. Do the six pack carbs have backfire protection for the powervalve? (everything i can find says no but there is some info that points to it being a non issue on them) My car started running really rich at idle and the plugs are really dark. Vaguely remember a backfire last fall when i started it up on a cold day and think it may have damaged the power valve. Once off the idle circuit she runs very nice. Also noticed stone cold (no choke) it will idle which confirms a rich situation
2. Is it possible to remove the center carb without the others? Ive read you can modify an open end wrench to get at the tricky nuts and slide it out to the passenger side.
thanks!
