1985 GSL-SE choke?

Does anyone have a picture of the choke on the '85 GSL-SE? Mine appears to be missing, and I'd like to know what it looks like. Also, if anybody has an idea where I can get a replacement for a reasonable price, that would be great. Thanks!

The gsl-se dosn't have a choke because its fuel ingected vs older models (gs/GSL) which had a single carb.

The GSL-SE is fuel injected, so no choke and there is an idle motor as well as cold start system. Upon starting it should rev up a bit then idle at 1500 RPM while cold, gradually decreasing to 750 RPM as it warms up. If this doesn't happen, check the throttle body and cold start cam (back of the throttle body) to make sure everything moves freely and works as specified in the FSM. Make sure the idle valve is connected, both electrical connector and vacuum line.
