carburator adjust 240-260 1982

ICQ>

I recently had the carburator re-built due to a warm engine start problem I was

having. The volvo dealer convinced me that with the mileage and the fact that

the carb had not been touched in 16 yrs, a re-build will do the trick.

The car now runs great, idle is smooth, and the warm engine start problem is

gone.

But.

In the past the engine when cold, and the choke pulled out, would start

immiediatly. approximately 1 sec. Now I have a new problem. when the

engine is cold and the choke pulled out, the engine turns over longer, about

3-4 sec before firing up.

I do not want to return to the dealer as they have re-adjjusted allready at my

request.

Any advice?
