choke problems again..

[DanG86LX]

The car was fine till this morning when it did not start.
Well, I pump gas as usual 3..4 times (cold here ~ -10*C), crank up ok, kind of started for 2..3 sec then dead.
Removed the air box, and guess what, the choke flap 3/4 open! Tried to move the flap by pulling the linkage but the flap did not move! How could that be? Fortunate, I got a spare carb from junk yard, so I removed the top hat and I saw the culprit, a little screw which secure the choke lever to the flap shaft. It was loose on my car. To tighten it u have to remove the little rubber cover on the right side of the shaft.
I just wonder how many 3geez end up at junk yard bc of such a damn screw..
