All the Federal TR6s had Strombergs with adjustable dashpots.  Non-Federal TR6s had fuel injection.  All TR7s with Strombergs have adjustable needles.  Non-Federal TR7s had SUs.

Thanks, JB and Mr. Turbo.
As John has suggested, first I need to check everything else about my tuning (valve clearances and ignition timing) but I think I'm in need of adjustability.  Running very rich.
Lots of eau de hydrocarbons and frequent fouling, not to mention fuel milage about the same as a Chevy Suburban: 16 mpg.
