i dont doubt there can be variables & growing pains with each car, but for the most part i have never had problems with electric chokes, factory or converted. i also live in the midwest where we have pretty extreme seasonal changes in temps, once adjusted right, the electric choke cars run great in any temps up until it snows when i put them away for winter.

This occurred almost 50 years ago. Aftermarket electric chokes were NOT adjustable (unless one fabricated a variable voltage source) at this time. Most were completely off in less than 1 minute. Guess I should have given a time-frame.
