auto choke problem
 

does anyone else have a problem with the automatic choke cooling down faster than the car itself, and then not being able to start the car later because the choke is closed?[/align]

RE: auto choke problem
 
Sounds like the choke is adjusted too tight , that would
make the choke close when the spring is just starting to
cool off instead of waiting untill it's cold.
When the engine is cold ( sitting over night cold )
loosen the screws holding the choke element and rotate
it and see the choke plate back off a bit then rotate the
element in the direction to make it just close and then
tighten the screws.
