I probably didnt paraphrase it too well, as far as the initial settings for the acc pump, the way you said it is what's in the Don Gould tech paper. The business about tapping the acc pump lever is kind of unique, I have never seen that anywhere else. The theory behind it, (again, I'm paraphrasing, and this is my understanding of it) is that introducing the fuel from the acc pump and observing the behavior of the motor tells you a lot about your idle circuit: how fast the air is coming down the venturis, how well the extra fuel is getting atomized, how well it is being burned.

Agreed about the plugs. They were new, I'll just clean them up.
