Any one have any idea what CFM 2 bl this motor should be using? Checked the demon carb that is on the motor and found out it is a 500 CFM, seems to be a lot of carb for a 4 cylinder!

Volvo has been using the 3.0L since 94, want to let us in on what model engine you have? Like full model or serial number. Year means nothing as Volvo doesn't list anything by year.

It's obviously a fairly new engine to have a Demon carb, if it's the original carb, and I would bet the engineers may have even given thought to the CFM in the process of designing it into the system.

Ayuh,... It's probably the float level...
