Hey. I took the spark plugs out and they are black sooty. Google tells me it running rich.
However, I've only been starting the engine to move the car back and forth only getting up to temp every so often. Could that be the problem? My gut feeling is it could be. Any other thoughts? How do I adjust fuel air on a kjet?
Thanks
Kjet running rich?

Ok. Ignore me. Google says short runs with a cold engine can do this. Guess that's it then.
