Question Stuck Choke

Ok, Pull **** let idle for 15 seconds at 2RPM. Push **** in run about 1500RPM, choke use to go in by itself, now I have to do it by myself. When I have pushed it about all the way I hear this clicking sound. Is there a way to adjust this.

Thanks

I would guess that the mechanism has released, but friction is holding the choke out. Trace the choke line to the carb and lubricate everything that moves that's related to the choke. If you have a good creeping lubricant you can also lubricate the cable sheath from it's brace near the oil filter - but do it sparingly so it doesn't run into the car.

Lubricating all the linkages around the carb worked for me when I had the same problem.
