That will usually cause a massive fuel leak.

It depends on a lot of other things. Start trying things and see how you like the results.

Look in the sticky for the timing bump. 1/8 from the cyllinder head is good. Brought our fuel mileage up and gives more throtte response.

If you have the AFC foot out, the smoke screw or ground pin isn't doing anything.

Yes, removing the AFC lever makes more power. It will be a smoky mess with POD's though.
