    Thanks for the suggestions, guys. I did get the manual choke hooked up (used the pasenger side vent cable that I repaired after relpacing it), adjusted the fast idle and it works well. The drain back problem has mysteriously disappeared. Mind you, I am not complaining, but that is odd. i looked into the fuel tank and it appears very clean and with no rust or other debris in the tank. The best I can come up with is that there was in fact something causing the fuel pump valve to stay open, like debris.

    In any case, I am a happier camper now. Thanks again.

    Yesterday was a good day to 'drop the top', which is what I did. The car is way more fun to drive than my C6 because it is old(like me) and is surprisingly nimble(unlike me).
