They should look like their in new condition. Brown still means it's a little rich. It might not smell like fuel but when people run really rich the spark plugs do smell like fuel.

Are you sure both solenoids are opening?

You really need to pull the spark plug just after spraying it to get a good read on those plugs. Otherwise, you put a few miles of normal driving on them and it could mask the problem a bit.

The nozzle is in there correctly. The fuel side of the nozzle is always closest to the tb.

Adjust your bottle to where the bottle nut and feed line are on the bottom. The siphon tube angles down towards the bottom of the bottle on the bottle nut side.
