Choke Question

<< < (2/3) > >>

Cliff Ruggles:
The vacuum supply is inside the "boss" on the lower right corner where it meets the housing. 

Any particular reason for leaving off the choke?  You must block the hole going into the main casting as well, or tons of dust and dirt will get sucked thru the engine......Cliff

Kjetil:
The car will be used in the summers only, so I decided to leave it off.

I looked at the carb closely today and tried to drift the holes with a steel wire to see if there were passages leading down to the baseplate. But I couldn't find any. Are there any if it came with electric choke from the factory?

Is this the boss you're refering to Cliff?



Here's the choke housing:

Shark Racer:
yup. you need to seal that hole and the one just above and to the left, where the choke shaft would go.
