Any thoughts on a blocked off heat riser and the car running rich? I block off the heat riser in the summer to reduce the heat on the carb. But now it is Fall/Winter. My search of prior "heat riser" threads, pertains to reducing heat off of the carb, rather than how it effected the function of the carb.
