Re: [T3] Carb o-haul part 1

    I'm a little baffled by what I found out tonight.  I found both 6v
electro-cut-offs have 35 ohm resistance.  So I checked them with 12v, and they
clicked!  That means they are still working after at least 10,000 miles of 12v
running,  maybe double that.
    The accel. pump diaphragm that comes with the USA kits is close, but no
cigar.  Tommorow I will drill off the new rubber.  Then I will drill and tap
the old "button", and reassemble with a screw in place of the rivet.  Wish me
luck.
    Where does the rubber o-ring go?  Is the "mixture" screw the same as the
"volume" screw?  My exploded diagrams don't show anything.  It looks like the
threads of the volume screw need to be 100% to seal.
