Just because your eyes are watering does not mean it's running rich.

Have you been able to experimentally conclude that the car is running rich?

Take it to a shop "that specializes in mustang's" or in for a tune "if You can afford it", without the rite equipment & mechanical experience You will just be throwing part's at the car and frustatng Youself plus if it's running that rich You could end up with worse issues to deal with. That or get a friend that know's how to work on car's give You a hand. Not tryin to bash on You just givin You some honest advice.
