landroversforever Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 I thought the choke just put more fuel in. certainly had a noticeable effect on the old Fester Fiesta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ratty43 Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 By pulling the choke you are effectively changing the state of tune, it may be that it has been leaned off for the emmissions test, it's not uncommon for that to be the case. Pulling the choke on when warmed up should make it run rougher if the tuning is spot on. Could be a restricted air intake or the timing as a couple of other options, since the condition of the rest of the ignition etc should be checked before tuning anyway that's a logical way to start looking for the problem.
