Stupid question....but have you checked the clearance to all the choke linkage with the top of that air cleaner removed to make sure it's not holding the choke partially closed? Just a thought.
Yeah, just checked...no problems there. I do notice that the choke is partially open when cold, but I don't have problems with cold starting at all...fires right up. I know that edelbrock recommends it be closed with light spring tension on it, when cold. Correct? I haven't adjusted it because it's not giving me any problems. Thanks for your input.
