Yes you may connect an electric operated choke on an engine that was previously using a manual choke, BUT, you need to adjust the choke in the open position so as not to chock off the engine. Also, start the engine, let it warm up to normal operating condition. While waiting you may need to adjust the carb to maintain idle. Once warm, turn idle screw down to about 550 or 600 rpms...then turn the mixture screw , one at a time , clockwise in..until the idle begins to run rough, then turn ccw till you get the smoothest idle. Then turn the other mixture screw in till it runs rough..then turn ccw till it too runs smooth and or fastest idle. I assume this is a manual transmission...so again the idle rpm must be reset to approx 650rpm ..maybe 700. Depends on how old the motor is. But without the choke being connected to a temp sensor or choke coil....be sure it is held in the open position. I would preferr to use a manually operated choke if you didn't want the electric one!! Three minutes and you have a cable run and installed. np

yes. however it won't start normally. if it's cold, you may not get it started at all.

not at all - if it even starts it will be too rich when running ( they do sell manual choke kits for this carb - get one or use the electric choke )

hey just wait - in summer you might get away with it ( and if connected you mean the heat tube - that is there to DISENGAGE the choke which is why it will be too rich )

sure will the choke only work to warm up the engine, just be ready to feather that throttle

is "Natural Gas" o.k to use in ANY CAR?

Without connecting the choke, is the choke on or off? If it's on, then it will stay choked after the engine warms up, not good. If it's off, then you could install it, but you may have trouble starting it, especially if its cold.

Does driving in 4x4 actually use more gas than when not?

Yes you can and the car will run just fine - once the engine is warm. BUT. Getting it started and warming it up will be a pain - especially in the winter. You can be rest assured that the pain in the tail will motivate you to connect the choke. You may find that using starting fluid (comes in a spray can) will be a huge help in getting it started, just use this stuff sparingly.

You'll need the choke to start a cold engine. The hook up is easy. You also go with a manual choke. Now days few people could even start a car with a manual choke.
