4. Make sure the cork gasket is still in place in the choke housing or main body. If it is not, attach it to the vacuum passage on
the back of the choke housing. Re-attach the choke housing to the main body using only the top two screws as shown in
figure 9 making sure the choke ground wire is behind the top right screw. . The third screw will be installed in a later step. It
will help to open the throttle slightly to pull the fast idle lever away from the fast idle cam assembly.
5. Manually operate the choke plate by moving the bi-metal pick-up lever on the front of the choke housing. The choke plate
should move freely. If not, check the choke linkage to make sure there is no binding.
6. Install the choke cap gasket back onto the housing.
IMPORTANT: When installing the choke cap, be sure the bi-metal pick-up lever (in the housing) fits into the loop on the bi-
metal spring. Check this by turning the choke cap in both directions. The choke plate should open when
rotated clockwise, and it should close when rotated counter-clockwise.
7. Install the electric choke cap and retaining ring. Install only the LH and bottom screws in this step. The RH screw will be
installed later. (See figure 10) Install the ring so it bows outward from the choke cap. Tighten it enough to hold the cap in
place, but allow it to be rotated.
8. Rotate the choke cap until the mark on the cap aligns with the index on the choke housing. Tighten the retaining screws so
the cap cannot rotate.
NOTE: How to set the choke to index. Align the notch in the black plastic choke cap with the longest line on the choke
housing. This is usually the line in the middle on the choke housing.

9. Install the TPS bracket to the choke housing using the two screws left out in steps 4 and 7. Make sure the TPS cam
seats into the round hole in the bracket. If the TPS cam does not seat properly, some minor tweaking of the fast idle
lever may be needed. (See Figure 11)
