Re: more carb questions
It doesn't look like it's off of any 73 up truck, that throttle bracket looks strange. It prob used a bi-metal spring on the intake to work the the choke.

Re: more carb questions
ok, so I went out and looked at the part number. and if I did my looking up right. it is a 1969 4bbl federal standard Chevy made for a Auto trans. it is 702902, so I downloaded the manual for a 1969 Chevy Carb and by what I can tell that it is the spring type choke. but, the picture doesn't quite look right. I'll keep learning, looking. Any more info from anyone would help alot. Maybe I can hook up the cable for the choke right up to somewhere and make it work like that?? I dont know.

Re: more carb questions
Yeah I would try to make a choke cable work, because unless you have that year range intake to go with that carb it would be rigged anyway.
The manual should tell you how to hook up the vac ports. |
