with pipes on that engine you have to run them so rich in order to not blow up that that mileage doesn't surprise me. If you think it is running way too rich, consider jetting down a little, or dropping the needles a little. Also probably want to check the reeds to make sure that they are sealing properly and that they aren't chipped or cracked.

Thats what they get! If it run's good ,I would not fool with it. But that's my 2 cent's
