Re: Rochester carb choke assembly

If the choke is taking too long to come open then rotating the choke stove (new electric unit) to a leaner position will shorten the time the choke is on. However go to far and the choke may not close completely thus necessitating adjustment of the linkages. Another way to get it to open quicker is to move the sensor (if you have that style) closer to the exhaust crossover in the intake manifold.
Thanks for the ongoing help man, much appreciated!
