i have a 74 merc 140 with the 2bbl rochester carb, and the thermal choke thingy (technical term)broke quite some time ago and quit working. i was wondering if there was an electric choke conversion for this.

That would be the Choke Stove......<br /><br />Replacing what's Broke will be Much Easier than Trying to Convert it to something it's Not..........

Re: electric choke conversion

the reason i was thinking about converting it is because the tube that comes off the choke and connects to the exhaust manifold broke off at the manifold and it dosent seem that there's an easy way to fix it, seemed easier to just change to an electric

32-53371 PIPE, CHOKE - CARBURETOR $7.20 <br /><br />It's alittle Expensive,..... But it Still Seems Easier to Me......#33 in the pic.....<br />
