 Auto Choke Hi Chaps Started the Chevy 383 up today and is running a little to fast 1500 rpm on tickover. The holley carb (Street Avenger) has a built in auto choke but has yet, I've not attached a 12V feed. Will ataching a 12 V feed reduce the tickover to around 800rpm once the engine gets warm, or do I have to adjust the carb in some other way? Thanks for your help Carl.      |

| You don't need choke, auto or otherwise. PITA IMHO. Strip it off, and learn how to start a cold engine using the accelerator pump. Auto or manual chokes are.....................gay.  (except on SUs)

| I agree with Wilf, you dont need a choke, 3 or 4 pumps on the gas peddle and it will fire up, the advantage ( apart from the gay one) is it enables you to set up this type of carb. better, and if you remove the choke mechanism COMPLETELY, the carb. will breath better.

| With an Edelbrock its possible to remove the choke part but retain the fast idle which is quite handy! Pete
