Re: [Chrysler300] AFB 2903 electric choke conversion

["Warren Anderson" <wranderson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

  I drove my C300 in Southern CA for many miles and many years without choke action and without a heat riser valve. Worked quite well.  Car is a real bear where we live now without manifold heat and choke until engine reaches full operating temp.

  Heat risers push exhaust under carburetors to heat floor of manifold. Otherwise, fuel condenses big time on floor of manifold during initial cold start and even on colder days.

  I have worked with thermal choke carbs that have had electric heaters retrofitted. Experiences were never good. Electronic controls did work best but electric assists still brought chokes off way too fast. Bogging and backfiring during warm up. Fouling plugs etc. Carbon build up.
