Re: STILL running a little rich...??

Make sure the lambda system is working, the "dwell" should be
fluctuating indicating a working Lambda system and a good O2 sensor.
You could try the "dwell" method of adjusting the mixture screw or go
to a station with an exhaust gas analyzer. Also make sure the idle
system is running by pulling the plug off the idle motor and the
engine should run lousey and die. Gas mileage is affected by a lot
more than just the motor, underinflated tires, slipping clutch,
dragging brakes, alignment, and driving style, all can have a negative
effect on gas mileage. You should also make sure the advance system is
hooked up correctly and working (vacuum and mechanical).
