Howdy guys,
I got a Motorcraft 5200 that looks to have come off a pinto/capri, something with a L4 and it has the hot water choke. I kinda like the idea of that over the electric choke b/c it opens as the car actually gets warm and closes as it cools, rather being its own system. Plus it warms the carb when its freezing out. Thats just how I see it.
But bigger question, can i put that on my redline 32/36? Is this an upgrade to the electric choke? What are the downsides? Upsides?
The 5200 has 2/4 mounting holes kinda screwed up. The corners are missing but i dont see how a JB weld fix and the use of washers couldnt fix that. So is this save able? Or is it just for parts?
Thanks guys
Ryan
