Paul,

On the DGV the accelerator pump jet is NOT calibrateable.

 This 'richening' function is the equivalent of the heavier spring
 of the SU carb.
 On initial accel. you need a bit of extra gas getting in to compensate
 for the sudden pressure drop opening the buterfly
 the stiff spring of the dashpot piston, fighting the vacuum, causes 
 vacuum to suck gas rather than air until the piston could move up 
 to allow air in, thus temporarily enriching the mixture.
 
 On a DCOE, this is the same as the pump/accel and backbleed jets.
