Re: {Chrysler 300} Choke question

There are normally two ways to adjust the cold start choke setting. First, the choke bimetal spring in the unit that sits in the manifold should be adjustable via the screwdriver slot in the axle of the spring. Usually there are markings on the disk for rich and lean. The second method is to bend the linkage rod so that it is more or less straight to change it's length. Hope this helps.

I have a 300 F that has always been a hard starter. I noticed that my choke is wide open, so I purchased a new choke mechanism and removed the thick carb base gasket. This is a picture with no base gasket and the choke butterfly closed. Notice the difference I still need to insert the choke rod into the choke. Any ideas on how to correct this? Thanks
