Choke Cable Adjustment
Verify free play of 3/16” (4.76 mm) and smooth operation of the
choke cable at the dash.
Adjustments to the freeplay can be made by loosening the choke
cable bracket at the carburetor and moving the cable in or out to
gain the desired freeplay.
If smooth choke operation is not obtainable, inspect choke cable
for kinks or sharp bends in routing.
Choke Cable Replacement
The choke cable is replaced as an assembly.
1. Engine is off. Place the vehicle in neutral and apply the
parking brake.
2. Remove the cable end from the carburetor.
3. Remove the retaining screws and pull the choke assembly
out at the dash.
4. Raise the vehicle and support it with jackstands in order to
access the underside.
IMPORTANT: Document location of cable ties and
routing prior to removal. This is important for
reassembly.
5. Pull the cable out from under the dash and the underside of
the vehicle.
6. Route the new cable from front-to-back, through the
retainers at the bottom of the frame, following the routing
noted during disassembly. Place cable ties at the
appropriate locations.
IMPORTANT: Do not allow cable to hang below
vehicle frame.
7. Reinstall the choke assembly into the dash. Hand-tighten
fasteners sufficiently, using care not to over-tighten.
8. Reinstall the choke cable onto the carburetor.
9. Adjust cable to desired freeplay.
If smooth choke operation is not obtainable, inspect for kinks,
sharp bends in the routing or a linkage obstruction.
