Once you close the choke, reinstall the air filter and housing onto the carburetor. here

Step 5: Try moving the valve slightly with your fingers. If the valve refuses to open or close then it could be stuck shut somehow, either from dirt build up or due to an improperly functioning temperature sensing adjustor.

The choke is a plate in the carburetor that opens and closes to allow more or less air into the engine. Similar to the throttle, the choke plate rotates from a horizontal to vertical position to open up the passageway and allow more air to get by. The choke is located before the throttle, and manages the total amount of air going into the engine. here

Step 1: Wait until morning to check the choke. Check the choke and see if it is closed when the engine is cold. more

The choke is only used when starting a cold engine. When doing a cold start, the choke should be closed to limit the amount of air going in. This increases the amount of fuel in the cylinder and helps to keep the engine running, while it is trying to warm up. Once the engine has warmed up, a temperature sensing spring slowly opens the choke plate to allow the engine to breath fully. [links]

If you are having trouble getting the car started in the morning, inspect the choke on your engine. It may not be completely closed on cold start, allowing too much air into the cylinder, in turn preventing the car from idling correctly. Once the car has warmed up, if the choke does not open fully, the restriction in air may result in reduced power.

Question: My 1994 Ford Ranger will sometimes stall early after starting, and it won't start again right away. But after an hour or so, usually, it starts back up. Any thoughts on why this is occurring?

The manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor compares the barometric (atmospheric) pressure to the intake manifold vacuum. When the sensor fails, it can prevent your engine from starting. Not all vehicles use this sensor. Consult your vehicle repair manual.

I have a 2012 ford fusion se that cranks but wont start snd i have 2 codes popped up one is p0420 and the other is p0128 i think my catalytic converter is plugged what is everyones opinion on this matter here

The things we are going to check out here are a bad battery, corroded cables or a bad starter motor. A bad battery will be detected by a low voltage at the battery terminals (not the cables) while cranking. Corroded cable connections will be detected by low voltage at the cable ends. A bad starter motor will draw a high current and the battery cables will get warm to the touch. [links]

Rinse the cable ends with clean water and reassemble them, positive first.

You get into the family buggy and try to start it. It cranks over but sounds like it is cranking slowly. After a few seconds of cranking it still turns over, but slowly. Before you go out and buy a new battery, read this. Maybe you will eventually buy a new battery, but you will have diagnosed the problem and will not be wasting your hard earned cash..

If you want to do a little bit of diagnostics either before or after cleaning the cables (assuming that cleaning them didn't fix the problem) then do the following. The first thing you have to do is to make sure that the battery is fully charged. Put a charger on it for at least three hours. Now, get yourself a voltmeter and start measuring voltages. First across the battery terminals. Should be a good solid 12 volts from your battery, 14.5 if you have the jumpers connected to a running car. A battery that is three or four years old will probably cause you problems, either now or some night when it's 20 below zero!! Replace it!

it is asinine to bother with a variable injection system at all if you're not going to pump the oil in where it can instantly react to the throttle setting. here

A constant mix leaves nothing to chance. here

While we all have out own opinions about engines and their components, blanket statements like the oil systems suck or are doomed to fail is irresponsible, and doesn't take into account the hundreds of thousands of engines running perfectly fine out there. [links]

It is also argued that injection like the Autolube on the older Yamaha motorcycles was better for reliability than for premix, because the oil was pumped in behind the carbs in such a way that it hit the bearings first. The bearings are what need the oil the most and therefore this is an advantage over premix.

mixing oil plus injection would be like 100:1 or 75:1 32:1 is standard high perf ratio 32 parts gas to 1 part oil more
