Automatic Choke

  1. Automatic choke is operated by manifold vacuum and an electrical heating element with a heat sink. Continuous voltage is applied when ignition switch is in "ON" position.
  2. If battery voltage is indicated at choke electrical connector and element fails to warm after one minute, check for continuity between choke and carburetor body. Choke element should indicate continuity.
  3. Adjust by locating choke housing notch and index retainer to left of fuel inlet fitting.
