George :

ISTR this was discussed on the shop-talk list not too long ago, you might check 
the archives.

Your plan sounds good to me, except that I would want the air exit to be in the 
mask, so I didn't reinhale the air I just exhaled.  If your carbon mask has two 
elements, you could probably just remove both, then blow air in through one of 
the holes and cover the other one with a paper element.

Of course, you'll want your pump air intake outside, where it sucks only fresh 
air.
