Quite possibly my most entertaining video yet, I blend some YT influences therein. See if you can spot them all. 

In this update, I adjust the manual steering gearbox on the 1967 Volvo Amazon 122s. This probably applies to the 140 and P1800 models as well. 
The Weber 38DGES needed some rejetting and bending of the accelerator pump arm (because it's not adjustable), but what really made the biggest difference was enriching it at idle so that it makes up for the leaning out at cruising speeds and light throttle. It still does it though, but gets better once the engine is REALLLY WARMED UP. I am awaiting the day I move to fuel injection.

Carb Jet specs for the techies:
165 air correction, 40 mains, 70 discharge nozzles.
