I read a story years ago concerning a British woman who had purchased a new car. She complained to the dealer that it was running poorly and belching black smoke. It was checked and nothing malfunctioning was found. They ask her to drive the car with a ride along mechanic. She got into the driver seat, pulled the manual choke all the way out, and hung her purse on it. Of course when she had arrived at the dealership she retrieved her purse and pushed in the convenient ‘purse holder’. I have had several vehicles with factory manual chokes and have installed a couple of manual conversion kits. Now I let the ECU adjust fuel/air mixture as needed.
