Reply to "Any Ideas?"

The car will naturally run richer as the engine heats up and the air is less dense. Could you be running into a mixture issue at hot idle? Is the choke plate opening all the way when the motor warms up or not closing all the way when the engine is cold? If not it could be running too rich or lean at hot idle. Could be the idle mixture just needs to be adjusted a bit more. You also may have to adjust the idle slighlty higher when the engine is cold to compensate for the idle decrease at ht idle. Hope you figure it out. Im a fuel injection guy so forgive me if my carb tuning is not 100%.
