Ok. Some feedback. Here is what we found, the plug wires were not in the correct order, 1 and 2 were backwards. Replaced the Vacuum advanced canister, and did replace the power valve. Also cleaned the plugs and checked compression, that was all good. Also put on a MDS ignition coil, 45k. I have to set the timing by driving it around. Its in pretty good.
So the richness problem is now fixed.
Thanks.
