Still looks a little bit rich to me. Especially no 3.

I don`t see big difference...
I have adjusted more out:
Cylinder 1: 1/2 out
Cylinder 2: 1/4 out
Cylinder 3: 1/2 out
Cylinder 4: 1/8 out
Picture below is before I was turned out according to table above. I have now inserted new spark plugs and not cleaned one.
I need to wait some days to see the results, need to fix the threads on spark plug 2 first...

Just installed an A/F gauge. Used a gauge pod and a generic mirror bracket for mounting. O2 sensor is underneath after the collector where it can't be seen.

Looks like you can dial them out using the pilot screws.

I cleaned the spark plug today, please see picture below, it was to hard to get them to look as new, but hopefully is it good enough....
I also adjusted the air screw some out on the carb. who was to rich... with my stomach "feeling" based on the look.
Will try to take a short trip tomorrow or Sunday and keep the RPM under 3RPM.

I was driving a short trip today, please see picture below its X_6 from today.
It was hard to get the spark plug 100% clean before the test run....
I have only adjusted the 4 cylinder out 1/4.
On Friday will I go on a weekend trip, so not more adjusting right now....
I will order new spark plug, at least 8, properly 12is good to have and continue adjusting after the trip.
I`m also curious to see how the plugs looks like after the weekend trip.
as I see it has the testing improved the mix`er.
