Could be float if someone has been in it before, or black being too rich.

On the 'other sites' what do 'they' say those screws are for?
I got a 2.6 carb but I don't know if they would be the same.

Going out on a limb here but check the timing FIRST. If it's off or advance bad it could make one think it's another thing.

if its the same year the 2.6 and the 2.0 stock carbs are the same as long as it is a 2 barrel i found that out atleast. the other sites are saying that the screws are right next to the throttle cable. and what i mean by drag is that it bogs it backfires but only when the motor is cold after warm up a lot of the bogging goes away. I have big plans for this truck but only if i can get it running right. Timing is set. I set it myselft then thought the same as you and had someone else check it to make sure. It blows white smoke when first starting then goes away.
