Hi Chris,
You can do what I did a few years ago with the same exact part #'ed pull off
diaphragm.
Remove your old pull off dia. and take it/mail it to:
Evergreen Carburetors
12432 Hwy 99 Bay 77
Everett, WA 98204
425-355-3369
Believe it or not, they rebuild them and can visually find a pull off that
matches. They do not find the match by part #, don't ask me why. So keep any
cores you may have for future rebuilds.
Best part: The pull off diaphragm was about $20 for my '66 Coupe when
purchased about 4 years ago. I just talked with Evergreen and his quote was
$20 to $25 for the '66 pull off, if in stock.
Good luck,

Subject: RE: IML: Choke pull off for 66 part #
A choke pull-off either works or it doesn't. A
working used one will perform exactly as well as a new
one. It just might not last as long. If you buy a
new one, it will probably last another 40 years,
whereas a 40-year-old one may not have much life left
in it.
You can do without one, but cold-start and/or cold-run
performance will suffer. It's purpose is to pull open
the choke a specific amount once the car is running.
Without it, the car runs very rich (and rough) until
warmed up. Once the car warms up, the pull-off
diaphragm is essentially disengaged, so performance is
unaffected by the absence of one.
