My tank is only half full and the color of the smoke leads me to believe its burning excess gas. I did have the fast idle lever up pretty high so it kind of roared to life. POssibly that had something to do with all the smoke. I guess I'll look at the carbs and fuel pump one more time before taking it out again.

Is it possible the float levels wee set wrong during the carbs rebuild? Allowing to much gas into the cylyinders and loading the engine down at idle/start up. I suspect if this was the case you would see gas coming out of the carbs at low speed as well.

The floats were right on the money so I didn't make any adjustments. I went and restarted the motor without lifting up the high speed idle lever and there was very little smoke. I'll let it sit overnight and try again tomorrow. I plan to take it out on friday and see what happens after running for a while.
