One rich, one lean?

So I have the motor pretty much out of the car (im in the middle of my swap right now). The lift is hooked up to it any everything, I'm just waiting on a new motor. I decided to snap a few pics to see what you all might think of this.

How do you get it to run lean and rich? Maybe one rotor wasn't burning on one face?

He could of had a miss or a leaky injector. It looks dry so I don't think there's and oil problem.

This points to an injector problem. It's going to be a good idea to send them all out for cleaning before they go back into the new engine.

KIND OF hit the nail on the head. The jet head on my carb was only spraying to the front rotor and it was running lean. The rear rotor has been blown for 1 or 2 months now.
