Newbie Carb question

[reobj]

Does anyone know what the factory choke was on this set up? It is a 72 c10 with a 307 and rochester 2g carb. Any help is appreciated. Suggestions are also welcome.

My 68 with that setup has a manual choke. Is there a spot on the dash for it?

Not that I can locate.

If it was a manual choke carb the cable hook up would be on the drivers side.
Yours looks like a divorced choke set up like in this link.

Your coil, linkage and choke pull off are missing along with a modified choke pull off plate.

Do you have a pic of the drivers side?

My origonal c10 with the 307 has 71 k miles on it when I bought it from the son of the origonal owner. it has the 2bb. here are pictures of the carb.

and another one

my carb is part number 7042105/ 2141IM1

always a good idea to record that part number of YOUR carb as there are several carb rebuild kits out there and they are for different two bbl carbs. Its a Pain to buy the wrong kit several times just by guessing when you get to the parts counter.

it works pretty reliably when cleaned up and lubed up properly witha good grade of LPS gun lube.

if you need more pictures feel free to ask and I will gladly post them ditto on other aspects of the 72 c10's, mine is a 3 on the column long fleet.

I went to Geezer99's recomended choke adjustment website and its an excellent site..thanks Geezer!

hope it helps

It looks like I have identified what type choke it is, now to locate one. My carb is the 7042105 and attached are pics. Not sure why they are upside down. I can't figure out how to rotate them.
