thank all the gurus of this forum for the help, it's running well enough to putter around now with the vac lines replaced, will do a full freshen one day eventually though. anyone have a spare good cond. flame trap and want an a/c system from a 940? dizzy cap, cables etc. are definitely on the list, but it's made a solid 150 km trip today without stalling, so i guess they arent urgent replacements
