In hindsight yes it smelled rich, but the older cars all smell rich compared to the modern computer controlled fuel injection. I have a ‘67 442 runs perfect but smells a lot more than my ‘07 BMW. Guess I thought it relative as old to new engine science. Beside a few typical issues the 8BA always ran, idled & accelerated great! I do admit to what JWL mentions & do use the engine & Tranny compression braking to slow down especially w mechanical brakes.
