Is that an oil leak or fuel leak on the right side below the carburetor? IT could be leaking from the throttle shaft or could be leaking vacuum from your carb base gasket. Also, are the plugged vacuum lines really plugged? One of those should go to the distributor I am thinking. also maybe you are running too lean or the idle screw is not set properly, hence the running high
Yes - there is oil that has leaked on the top of the intake manifold. Figuring out what was causing that was next on my list - so thank you for your comments. I’ll also check the vacuum lines and plugs.
