I would replace the plugs first...
Boy this SUCKS Carter YF woes
One for the experts, no luck with anything similiar in the search option 
.
Six cylinder with a single throat YF Carter carby. The car would start but run very rich with black carbon out the tail pipe . If you start the car and NOT let it warm up enough then take off and stall (PG auto) you cannot restart the car, the carby would flood . Previously I would wait a day or two then the car would start :happy0065: Car stalled the other day BUT no luck in starting it this time, the motor sounds like it wants to fire up but just does not :banghead:. By the time I try it a couple of times theres a bad smell of fuel like in the past :scared0005:.
Since then I replaced all fuel from tank with fresh fuel and taken the carby apart, readjusted the float, new gasket set, clean etc thought that solved the problem but no luck.
I have spark etc, motor sounds like it wants to fire up but its like theres no detenation in the piston, any way I`m dumb founded, your help is needed :fahne19:
P.S I was going to replace leads, coil & plugs next.

O.K. D.S. you may have hit the nail on the head I removed and cleaned all plugs the ol`girl fired right up :congrats: I adjusted the carby so it now idles high in park, but when its in drive if I dont give it a bit more gas it will cut out. I`m thinking there may still be a problem with the carby :confused0006: at least it ran took it up the highway ran like a rocket, its the low revs at a stopsign in drive that worry me now any more suggestions as to the cause?
