One more choke ? 88 85 force

[mauiboy]

Hey guys
the choke seems to be sticking, it wants to engage you can see the arm moving some but not all the way.
I checked the rod and it is clean no prob pushing in the rod. do I need to replace the choke or is there away to overhul it.

loosen the bracket that holds the solenoid, and move it up or down and try to choke, maybe it just needs an adjustment or loosen the air box on the carbs and pull it away from the carbs and try that, the gaskets may be worn

Check the gaskets between the airbox and front of the carbs. Often they swell and bind the choke stop levers. Either trim them with an exacto knife (Preferable) or bend the levers a little with a needle nose pliers

Still spray the slide in the solenoid.It builds up gunk and needs to be cleaned. A can Of WD-40 or silicone spray will work wonders on the shift linkage and steering.J
