no idea - mr haynes can probably help.
i'd say its still running a bit rich - try adjusting it next time after 20 mins of running, and make sure you do it with the air filter on.

Adjusting to highest revs at idle will work but always tends to give slightly rich fuel mixture (about 5.0% CO). So if you haven't got an exhaust analyser handy, then adjust to highest idle revs then screw in slightly until the revs just barely drop. You should then be roughly within the correct range.
To the guy Mike, fingers crossed that your car's OK, but if the problem reoccurs then check for air leaks and if none are found there, open up the float chamber and make sure there's no dirt in there to block up the jets. Its not a difficult job to do, so why pay someone else to do it who might well not have seen these carbs before.
