I need a very good description of all the components of the choke system. I need vacuum lines(I'd also like to know how much vacuum they should have and when they should have it), what parts open the choke, also, there's a linkage that connects to something below the choke that I can't see, any info on this will be helpful.
The reason I need all this is cuz my choke is screwing up my idle. The car will idle around 2000 rpm when I first start it (I know this is normal), but it stays there. It's not just the idle cuz I can go down the road without my foot on the gas pedal and the speed just stays the same if the road is flat. It continues to do this long after the car is warmed up.
I was messing with it the other day cuz I wanted to try and fix it. I thought it was something to do with the fast idle unloader. However, I used my finger to open the choke ALL the way and the idle went down to 750 after I blipped the throttle. If I let go of the choke and blipped the throttle again, the rpms went right back up. So, I really need info about the choke and how I can get it to open all the way.
Sorry about the long explaination, I just wanted to let everyone know exactly what is happening.
Thanks
