67 GTO carburetor choke issues
I don't believe my carb choke is working correctly. When I cold start the car, it doesn't go to fast idle. I removed the air filter to get a better look and most times this piece (shown in pictures) is caught on the piece next to it.
It seems there's too much 'play' ...or movement from side-to-side of the arm, allowing it to catch on the other piece. Maybe a clip is missing? I thought on cold days, I'm supposed to press and release the accelerator to the floor before cranking?... to set the choke? Picture 1 shows it caught on top. Picture 2 shows it in the correct position. |

X2. Install the clip. The correct cold start is as you are doing: once or twice to the floor and then crank with foot off the pedal.

clip
What does the clip look like?
Or even better, a part number? |

Same clip as on the choke pull-off rod, #7005109.
You may also use #836159 on these rods as a replacement. |
