By chance i passed the exhaust on my Bj8 and felt a significant difference in whats coming from the left vs. the right pipe.
The left was smooth like on my new everyday car, the right was erratic. I suppose its cylinder 4-5-6 thats not running as good as 1-2-3. Is it possible to conclude anything else, whether its ignition or carb. problem? Is the rear carb. primarily feeding cylinder 4-5-6?
I have had problems with the spark plugs. I got the car two months ago and the dealer had put on new Champion N9YC spark plugs. If I idled the car from cold for longer time, perhaps a minute or two, with the choker on, they didnt ignite properly and the engine didnt run on all cylinders. Fixed it first time by removing the plugs and cleaning them, but second time that wasn't possible, so I had to replace them with new ones. Switched to NGK BP6ES as recommended here, because it was described as they would be better to clean themselves. Guess the engine is running to rich on one or perhaps both carbs, or perhaps the ignition is too weak. It has the original ignition system with contact breaker, condenser and a Mallory ignition coil.
