Re: Choke ??????

there should be a bracket (usually attached to the carb) that holds the carb end of the outer choke cable. Universal ones are available at all parts houses.

Re: Choke ??????

the cable has a rubber grommet where it goes thru the firewall. tight fitting. the rubber grommet has metal prongs that hold it to the firewall

Re: Choke ??????

One of the board vendors like Wes at Classic Heartbeat might have one. Or check the aftermarket like LMC or Brother's Truck Parts.
