RE: Convert points to electic

I think your choke is staying open all the time.
I've had just the opposite problems with the Stromberg on my 64 poly the end
of last summer, I had to open it to start it.
I hung a small pair of needle nose vice grips on the choke linkage to weight
it down to hold it open or she smokes like crazy and bogs when cold.
I haven't taken her out of storage yet to see what the problem is or if it
still is a problem. yet.
I wish there was a carburetor 101 course online I could take.

beautiful car btw!


Haven't started the car this morning

Here a picture before I do anything, the car is stone cold.

Here's a picture after pushing down the gas pedal and releasing (no key,
no attempt to crank)
