But my choke doesn't close all the way when I pull the knob out.Closes slightly. What is the best way to adjust the set screw closed or open? The spring on the choke appears to be used for opening it after being closed is that right? I have laced the outer rods with WD 40 but doesnt seem to help much. I need ideas. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2011 Posts: 206 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2011 Posts: 206 | i think you have it open full, with the knob pushed in ,and then set it right there. ( i might be wrong).
the butterfly dosent have to close completely. just has to reduce the air flow in so you run richer when its warming up | | | | | Joined: Oct 2009 Posts: 419 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2009 Posts: 419 | It was difficult to pull the choke knob out on the Blue Funk (see my signiture). I re-routed the choke cable to go around the carb and then through the little brace and into that little box-like holder. I pulled the knob completely out and then attached the wire inside the cable to the little box.
That worked for me- the knob is easier to pull out and the choke opens and closes well. | | |
