Wow thanks for all the info John! I just ordered the carbs so I'll see what's inside 'em once they come in. Then order jets, tubes, needles, etc... from there.
I'll figure out the enrichment circuit linkage as I go. I was actually thinking something along the lines of a bike cable as well.
Even if I can't get it all dialed in, I know this guy with the Volvo shop will take care of it. He's in his 60's, has multiple "round fender" bricks, and will chase you out of the shop if you try to get him to work on anything newer than a 940. Haha!!
I guess I should look into the whole electric pump thing. It's slowly starting to make more sense to me now.
Thanks again for the advice man!
One thing to think of when you got it all hooked up and plumbed---oh and I didn't see an answer about the arms on the cross shaft if they're aluminum with a pinch bolt---let me know---note that the accelerator pumps don't mess around..
They give a real good squirt so don't sit there cranking and stompin and cranking and stomping, especially in real cold temps, they'll squirt a LOT of fuel and real easy to wet the plugs...then it'll never start..
2 stomps initially, 1/8 throttle, crank....no start let the starter cool down 2-30 seconds. 2 stomps , 1/8 throttle crank....
