74 ts185

hey guys, im trying to restore my vintage 185 back to near original condition. what i cnat figure out is the oil injection. The bike runs great and gets enough oil but at the full open throttle position the bike gets to much oil, it lays a smoke screen down. I have adjusted the pump via the manual but in order to get enough oil and closed throttle and partial throttle the alighnment marks have to be to far advanced, can anyone help me out? is the problem my cable or something else?
also, i have two small dents in my gas-tank that is roughly and inch nad a half in diameter. what is the best way to smooth it out? the torch method using a slide hammer would work but the gas fume worry me. any suggestions?
thanks-tim

thanks.....the only unusual thing i noticed was the cable had a bit of a curve formed into it, like the rod that attaches to the arm got stuck at one time and twisted the cable around...but other than that it looks ok, and it seems liek that would afect the lowrange adjustment not really the high range? ......ill look it over again, thanks
-anyone have ideas on the tank, i really dont want to bondo the dents!!!!
