Manual mightyboy running a f5a with an rebuilt auto f8b carby using f5a jets runs awesome when driving but at idle will just blow black smoke, running rich till it fouls the plugs. Where to start looking guys was rebuilt by my mechanic but he isnt a specialist. What kind of differences are there between them.

Thanks steve

Sounds like needle & seat (flooding) problem.
