RE: {Chrysler 300} Electric chokes on 2903S carbs?



I have a question about electric chokes that someone with experience may enlighten me.

 

With a “normal” choke the residual heat from the inlet (or exhaust) manifolds hangs around for quite some time.  So, if you stop your car after a run and then start it say ½ hour later, there is enough heat to prevent the choke re-engaging.

 

However, with an electric choke, I wonder if the choke gets “cold” quickly and could re-engage when the otherwise warm engine gets restarted.  I have no experience with electric chokes so I would like to know if this is an issue.

 

I know with my hemi6 Val, once I start it for the day, the fast idle doesn’t kick in again regardless of the number of stops I do.  I’d hate to think an electric choke would engage again and again.

 

Anyway, I’m not planning to change mine as it works a treat.  People can let me know directly with their experiences.

 

Cheers

 

Henry

Had anyone installed electric chokes on the ram induction 2903S carburetors?

 

A friend has two 1960 ram cars and he's convinced he needs electric chokes. 

 

Didn't find anything in the tech archives.
