RatInDaHat Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 So, On my 74 1400 when it is cold i get a lot of hesitation and what not, after it has warmed up a little bit, it runs fine. I figure it is possible that the choke plate is closed off too much, but i could be wrong. any ideas? Thanks, -Dusty- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 There is a thing called a choke-pull off assy. This opens the choke as soon as the car starts to allow some air in. Its a little vac diaphram attached to the chike plate. Check to make sure its working. Choke adjust is very easy. When the car is cold, adjust the choke plate so that it just closes. Usually if anything is wrong its the CPA. nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you changed them, then there should be clean spots as to where the choke was screwed down for so many years nipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
