    Biametallic Spring

    Where would be a good place to buy a bimetallic spring / choke heater / choke thermostat (so many names for the thing)? I was thinking NAPA might have them but wanted to run it past some other more experienced parts buyers first. Thanks!

    Curious to learn why there is an electric choke heater on these carbs, with hot water running under them and hot air running into the air cleaner (assuming that door works)
    I know a little about a lot of things, and a lot about a few things. Just ask.

    So I've checked NAPA, they said they didn''t carry bimetallic springs. Any ideas of where I could pick one up?

    Called around and the only place I've dug up that would sell me the part was a Honda Dealer. They're askin $135.13 for it. Seem like a good deal?
