RE: Sounds like the carb needs attention.

That may be. The plugs had a heavy layer of soot on them so I replaced them. This is how I got the car to fire and run. After running about 8 miles on 6 then 5 then 4 then 3 cylinders I pulled out the new plugs and they were covered with soot too. I thought it might eb from misfiring due to imroper firing order/bad timing/dist misalignment. (I'm obviously not a mechanic but I'm trying) Does this sound like it confirms your bad Carb theory??
