   Where do you live? I'm in Rhode Island, where we're on the California
standard, which I thought was the toughest in the nation... Mine passed no
problem, with an Edelbrock and bad plugs.

   My gut reaction is that you should lean the carb out some for the test,
and then put it back where it belongs. How old are your plugs and air
cleaner?
