Hello,thanks for the reply.
Yes,they are reliable, especially if they sit as garage decorations for 10 years:)
I do have a 170 jet,i installed it because i had no other lead on the issue.For now,the plugs are much cleaner, but i only took it for a short drive.
Car has manual choke.
I also changed the old coil for a new blue Bosch unit, but from my knowledge,the new one is also oil filled.
Plugs are gapped correctly,and they are new,new coil,new high tension silicone power leads,new contact points,set correcly with a dwellmeter.
If the plugs finally stop becoming black,my only issue will be the shaky idle, which i suspect is because the air/fuel mixture is not set exaclty right,but that's another can of worms.Carbs are not my strength.
