Re: Need Help Finding Choke Thermostat
I had a hard time finding one too. I ended up getting one from the local NAPA, but it had to be ordered.

Re: Need Help Finding Choke Thermostat
Do you have a manual choke and want to convert it or do you already have the carb setup for thermostat control choke? Mine came with a manual choke setup.
I believe someone has asked this before. Might do a search and see what comes up. Maybe someone else remembers... LMC carries a choke for a 72 six. I'm not sure if it's the same as a 69 but maybe someone here may know. http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/cb/full.asp?page=126 |

Re: Need Help Finding Choke Thermostat
Last I could tell, there are a least two different types - one goes down between the head and the intake and on my 72, it's on top of the intake (which makes absolutely no sense to me but it is what it is). I'll TRY to post a pic here of mine.....

Re: Need Help Finding Choke Thermostat
The first isn't mine - the choke rod goes down in between the head and intake - you can see mine in the second pic, it's on top of the intake
