72 dart 318 starting sequence

Thanks so much what an explanation! so if the choke doesn’t open with the pedal pushed down what might be wrong I’ll post a pic in a couple minutes when I leave for work. Thanks again
When the engine is cold-
Opening the throttle should cause the choke to close.
Opening the throttle to wide open should physically cause something on the throttle shaft to physically push the 'unloader' tang, which rotates the choke open.
Every carb design is a little different so need to see what's there.
