I have a 1970 2A 2.6 6 cyl which is making a lot of black smoke
on tickover, which clears when some revs are put on. I've checked
the mixture, and inlet valves and these are ok. I'm assuming that
its not piston rings as the smoke is black not blue, or valve seals.
Any ideas on what may be causing this would be gratefully received.

Also I need a drivers seat, door tops and a electric fuel pump for
the above.

Finally, if anyone else has one of these rare (relatively) beasts
I'd be pleased to hear from you so that we can exchange tips info
spares etc.
