I haven't owned a carb car for decades. My last was a very proper and 
conservative (lower case "c:") for a young family Volvo 122S which 
required a Unisyn for function properly -  I'm sure they they weren't 
Zenith's but I forget what.  Hmmm - does SU sound right?

It did it's job very competently but the car destroyed itself against 
a steel bridge in a freak sudden snow white out.  Don't know how much 
the Volvo safety legend is still true but it died valiantly and my #1 
son and his Mom walked away without a scratch.
