Alvin,

No, I didn't know that!  I'll have to give it a try.  Wait a minute.
What/where is the S/Brake knob?

  S/Brake Mod:

  I hear if you pull the S/Brake knob Keith Williams appears and sets the
carbs perfectly for that altitude/weather change

    Richard,

    You mean you don't carry a complete set of jets and an O2 monitor with you
on such excursions?  Well, there's the problem!  ;-)

      So,  Let me tell you about solexes and Weber's.  They are absolutely
great at
      the altitude you tune them for.  But for driving at different altitudes
they
      suck.  When I had them on my car and well tuned there was nothing better
than
      the roar.  But when I hit the mountains I had to shift to second and
sometimes
      first to get up a steep grade.  Su/s compensate for that and give a
much
      better driving car.  Don't get me wrong/  I loved the solexes, but they
sucked
      when taking a fun run in the mountains.

      Richard
