Another feature on the later pumps that is lacking on the earlier ones is an adjustment for "residual pressure" (which I still do not understand really. Anyone want to take a whack at explaining that one to me? )
Not residual pressure, but residual volume. This is not a feature, but the sole function of the "previous" idle adjust on the newer pumps with idle boost.
The cold start nob has two detents on the later pumps. The first detent is an idle boost - a few hundred rpm. The second detent is an additional idle boost - maybe 30 rpm, and the cold start advance function.
The idle on these pumps is adjusted by means of a screw that effects the default rest position of the idle linkage on the side of the pump. The governor arm rest position stop screw is used to adjust residual pump volume, and should only be adjusted if symptoms of high residual volume (surging, unadjustable high idle) or low volume (bucking, long cranking times) are noted.
The idle mechanism on the later style pump is more complex and prone to sticking with age, which results in erratic idle.
