Re: Manual Choke?? conversion form automatic.
I have no idea. thats why I'm asking what would be involved and what is necessary. I used to always have manual chokes on my british 1970s mobiles and found them foolproof and very functional. After a fews starts you get to know exactly what is needed to start the engine first time.

Re: Manual Choke?? conversion form automatic.
Ive done them for decades, so it takes less than a half hour.
First time, give your self an hour, getting the cable though the dash is the hard part. When you install it, draw a straight line from the carb to the dash, and install, it there. Screw driver & pliers,(a wire cutter) thats about all thats needed. You Tube has a few videos, the one with the Chevy truck, he put his in the wrong place.
