Re: Quadajet Choke "Heat Stove" Question

Not much "fiddling" involved. The procedure is explained in the shop manual, as well as in this video. It's as simple as bending the wire linkage to the correct length. Set the choke with the motor cold. Once you have bent the linkage to the correct length, step on the accelerator to engage the choke. Start the motor and allow it warm up to operating temps, (10-15 min.) Then step on the accelerator (again) to disengage the fast idle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MqArPFwSa7U#t=111
