<x-charset iso-8859-1>MarkS=> the choke diaphragms are holed

I wouldn't epect this to be an important factor (unless they're really *big*
holes).

I might recommend that you disable the chokes and park them in full-open
position until you've got any other bugs worked out. The automatic choke is
a nice feature when it's working right, but not necessary to operation (as I
confirmed in Michigan last New Year).

=> about adjusting the accelerator pump settings.

This matters: too rich on the pump and you'll bog every time on
acceleration. The stock setting is the center hole. My rejetted carbs and
big-valve heads run best with the pumps set on the inner hole, which was
counterintuitive to me, but there you are.
