Seth,
Bob's email stated:
"The accel pump on the YH carbs only works when there is engine manifold
vacuum. that is just when the engine is running................
Regards,
Bob Helt"
I guess I misinterpreted his "engine manifold vacuum" to mean INTAKE
manifold vacuum. And in the stock Corvair turbo configuration, the INTAKE
manifold is DOWNSTREAM of the carb and turbo so the YH carb NEVER experiences
postive pressure (except in a coal mine, or other regions well below sea
level<GGG>).
Sorry, but which manifold did Bob mean?
And Seth, tell us just how you get positive pressure in the stock carb
unless you move the turbo UPSTREAM of the carb (calling Dave Binnie).

Bob,
So that ELIMINATES any accel pump action when the intake manifold
pressure reaches ZERO or goes beyond into positive (BOOST) pressure?????
Just when you need it most!!!!

Frank -
If you have positive pressure at the carburetor - before the turbo - You
have other, more serious problems!
