There are too many things going on here to rationally figure out what is causing rich mixture on a car that reportedly runs well
On CD2SE carbs one can adjust the mixture by removing the pistons, loosening the setscrew and sliding the needle up and down then tightening
Other things that can affect mixture
oil in dampers
what springs are in the carbs
are the temperature compensators working
First I would buy Lotus needles, changing to some unknown needle can have unknown consequences
B1Y B1AR or maybe some others. I think B1G was the emissions needle
