    I think i finally drove our 75 into the ground, did a little work last weekend and in the process of stripping a circa 1950's canopy camper of the pick-up i noticed a huge oil deposit on the ground, fired the rig up and watched oil shoot from the carb of my 20r, (it was like putting mentos in diet soda) I feel a change of power coming to this little pick-up, any ideas should put in another 20r, jump up to 22r maybe fuel injected, or should i get crazy,.

    What I would do man is do a compression test, or have one done, Ide be willing to bet you lost 1 or more cylinder(s) this would be a reason ( not the only ) that it would eject oil out the carb. The compression test will tell ya ( Thats my bet ). . . " Sorry to have to tell ya "!
