Manual choke conversion
Hi,
I'm a new member and interested in a manual choke conversion. I see 'kits' were available but as I'm new to the forum it haven't got the hang of using it yet so can't find who has the kits. Is it Paul?
Anyway a quick hello and if anybody can point me in the direction of who has the kit or solenoid for sale then great.
Cheers,
Mike

Re: Manual choke conversion
Fitting Paul's kit was about the first mod I did to my car many years ago, definitely worth doing.

Re: Manual choke conversion
I fitted Pauls kit, but instead of a switch to turn it on/off, I used a push button to activate a Maplin E555 timer kit fitted into a small project box with the variable resistor adjusted to keep it on for approximately 3 minutes. It works great.
