<VV> Rochester HV Accelerator Pump

[James Davis]

There is a ball seal in the bottom of the accelerator rod.  If you nove the
rod slowly the ball remains unseated by gravity.  When the rod is moved
readily the ball seats and gas is pumped into the orifice.  Bob Helt has a
carb boot that explains it all.
