Hey everyone, i installed a new thermastat in my regular 3.8 regal, no turbo no grand national just a normal motor. I am now having issues with keeping the car running, it will run with me holding the gas pedal down but then if i let up it will simply just back fire and shoot gas out of the top of the carbeurator.
It seems like its misfiring but i never touched the distributor and it has a lot of black smoke coming out of the exahaust as well as some gas i do think it is running rich but i never messed with the carb or the idle!!
I did have to disconnect the hard gas line that comes from the fuel pump into the carb, it has a spring and a gas filter in it which i did replace as well.
im stuck and need some type of guidance please any suggestions let me know!!
