Same spring-resisted air-vane AFM setup as on the 78.  Since I have no way
to test the results on this vehicle - Federal's had no O2 sensor and even
though I added a bung the O2 readings have been unreliable - I'm not sure if
I want to open up the AFM.  Since I'm only guessing at this point I'll just
settle for turning out the CO screw.
