I got the old carb today, now I know its a Stromberg because it says it on it. Do you know what model number this would be? Could this be the original Ford carb? I had the car running for a while today without the air cleaner she was smoking a bit hard to know if its from running rich or burning oil. Smoke was not blue, tail pipe is black. But really how does these cars run on 10% ethanol? Do they tend to run a bit rich anyway?
