Yeah, the carb looks original and never rebuilt. So your saying maybe the air/fuel mix is off? Already did plugs, wires, cap, rotor, points, set dwell (you guys helped me through that thank you). Timing next. I was going to set timing after dwell that day but I shut off the car to change from the meter to the light and the car dieseled for a minute or more and poisoned my air. Had to go outside. Pissed me off. So maybe a sticky throttle plate is the problem. It only deisels when warmed up to temp. A little carb cleaner? You think? Thanks.
