Some Ns will start without choke especially if: 1) Converted to 12v which spins the engine faster therefore creating more suction (Bournouli principle or however his name was spelled) 2) Fuel mixture richer so more condensed gas is sitting in the cylinder in the first place. In reading your first post, it seems you are agreeing that it is NORMAL to choke at first start AND sometimes even which engine is warm. Ford specs also confirm this is normal. Don't know why you're so upset. IMHO, bg is a very knowledgeable and helpful member of the Board. He's not known to "freak out" over anything. The MS carb is a very simple, reliable device. Properly built/rebuilt and adjusted it should not need repeated "tweaking." As for my N's carb and other carbs I've worked on ('61 VW, '63 Valiant,'69 Custom 500, '72 Corolla, '86 Corolla, '86 F-150, '80 Chev p/u, '71 T-37, '67 Lemans, '65 Tempest, '73 VW van, '73 Maverick, '74 Maverick, '80 Mustang, '01 Mercury Outboard, '? Wisconsin, ad infinitem). Yeah, I've had good and bad experiences. One thing I learned is once you get it in specs LEAVE it alone. Thanks to my father who was a Master Sergeant Master Mechanic and Machinist in the Stretegic Air Command, Kelly AFB, and the CC Army Depot, I learned a lot... like not screwing around with carbs unnecessrily. I'm glad you caught fish.
