Slick, and humor appreciated. Did not realize manual chokes lived on to the 70's!!!
The last car I had with a cable choke was my 69 Toyota FJ40 Land cruiser. It also had a manual throttle. I used it as a primitive cruise control.
But, this post does jog my memory back to early "auto chokes". A bitmetalic spring in
a housing with a pipe from the exhaust. Fussy with age. Kits sold to convert to manual via Bowden cable.
