1950Styline New Guy 1 Joined: Apr 2016 Posts: 4 Tucson AZ	My 235 runs very rich in '50 car. Plugs carbon up rapidly. Installed the second rebuilt Rochester. All new plugs, points, condenser, Carter EL158 12 to 6 volt resister type coil. Spark jumps 1/2" with plug wire separated from plug. Drilled vent holes in gas cap. Any suggestions?
