So the choke decreases as the motor warms up and not just a close or open situation . I think they are a combination of electrical and a bi metal coil spring ? I could be wrong but I was interested in the posts since I have always had cold natured used Fords that I had to keep pumping the gas to keep it running . [Reply]   [No Email]
