Electric Choke vs. Manual Choke vs. No Choke | Real World Experience!

- Опубликовано: 11 ноя 2023
- In the past three years I've run an Electric, Manual, and No Choke on my 1969 Mustang with a Ford FE. In this video I'm going to walk through my experience with all three. THEN, we talk about what I will be doing next year.
I compare each on cold starts, hot starts, and overall performance. The manual choke and electric choke were run on a Holley 750CFM Ultra while no choke was run on the Brawler carburetor.

Incredible video brother. Thanks for sharing. Keep the content coming. Hope you enjoy your day. Much love and RESPECT
Thanks for watching Tim! Hope you have a great weekend!
This is a great video and I like your idea of testing out several part options and provide feedback. The downside is the required time to fully test parts, but I think the videos will be invaluable when you're done. :)
Thanks Andy! Yea I agree it does take a long time to get some actual useful feedback. I think I’m planning 2/3 long term tests a year. Also another downside is if I really don’t like it, then I’m stuck with it trying to figure out if it’s me or the part.
Well done !
Thanks!
Great video! Factory chokes are my favorite, but running aftermarket manual would be my first choice then electric as my last choice. I just don't like the way electric chokes work every time you start the car after it's warmed up, but it's still better than no choke.👍
Yea, I agree with you. There really isn't anything better than a factory choke. Manual is definitely my second choice too. Thanks for watching Mitch!
Good morning bro! Awesome video! I’ve always likes manual chokes for the sake of adjustability. I’d love to see a Fox-body build next! Too bad you aren’t in Cali, those cars are plentiful and rust free here. Cheers! 👍🏻
Thanks Big Mike! Maybe I'll end up making a trip out there to grab one that's rust free. Probably my best bet. I do travel out there for work yearly.
Very informative video and great shirt BTW! Honestly would go efi if you plan on a lot of long distance cruising but if your just taking it out on short drives probably not worth the investment.
Thanks! I like this shirt so much I got two of them!
I wouldn't have an old car without an electric choke. The manual cables always seem to seize after a few years and no choke has you sitting there until you get to operating temp. Nice video.and i wouldn't go to fuel injection. Too much work, $$ and too little return.
The one on my Holley worked flawlessly when I got it tuned where I wanted it. Really was a set it and forget it solution. Thanks for watching!
@@SmackeysGarage set it and forget it is why I like them. :)
guys if you run a manual choke its easy to make a cheap cable work well. 1st no sharp bends only whats needed to hide it, 2nd pull the wire out and wipe a fine grease on it. then size and cut the coil. then push the wire through which will help remove the excess. then just mount and size the wire. you can thank me later.

Is it true that no choke causes excessive gas from gas peddle pumping to wash away oil in the cylinders? I have no choke and on cold days have to pump and pump the peddle til it warms up. A mechanic told me that washes away the oil in the cylinders. Good video
I'm sure it has some effect but as I assume as long as you aren't dumping fuel into it and running such a low A/F I would think you would be OK. I watch my A/F when I'm running and try and module at as reasonably as I can. It's only for maybe a minute to warm up. How do your plugs look typically? Very rich or normal?
@@SmackeysGarage thanks for the reply. my plugs look normal
I got a 1984 Chevy Caprice and the mechanic gonna tell me I got the wrong carburetor, I was like it’s a Rochester Carburetor 4 Barrel’s & Electric Choke with a 8 cylinder engine which is a 305 how is that wrong? He has got to be lying I think he just didn’t want to put it on and didn’t know what he was doing
There are less and less people who know how to work on classic cars and carburetors. Definitely a dying art
Never had a good electric choke on any car I've had, also, water-heated chokes are problematical.
Otoh, manual chokes are simple and reliable. I've converted a few over to manual and never looked back.
After going manual on my car I should have kept it. Makes starting much easier and you don't need to worry about moving the car or pressing the gas with the choke on.
switch to EFI so its like your truck, just start and go.
That's probably the top contender right now. What do you think, worth trying the Holley Sniper 2?
