Dual Weber Carb Problem with Choke

~Zaitsev 9 April 2005 14:28:12
 I need to install a manual choke on these carburetors.

I ordered a book but it doesn't say anything about chokes. I need to
disconnect the existing choke and install the manual choke.

Or can I get a replacement for the automatic choke that doesn't seem
to function properly?

Thanks.

Whoops. Just looked under the hood (got the car last week). It's fuel
injectec.

Did '73s have a FI option? At anyrate, the mixture is way to rich.
MPG is down and it backfires when I let off the accelerator.

Previous owner said that it needed a repair because if it was leaned
out it wouldn't start on cold AMs.

I guess my question now is do fuel injectioned engines have an
automatic choke? And what would I have to read up on to have the
engine leaned out and still start on cold mornings.

Thanks, Ed.

Assuming this is a Spider? I think most of them that went to your home
country were FI. Spica mechanicla system.

They have a 'cold start enrichment device'. It's not a choke as such, but a
sensor or device that determines the ;ow temperature state and injects
extra fuel into the system. I wonder if yours has failed and the 'fix' was
to have it shorted out (assuming it's electric) so that it was on all the
time.

Bear in mind that I'm basing this on general experience of FI engines, I've
never worked on Spica, so have no real idea of how CSE works. Hopefully
Doc Entropy will stick his head in some time and help, although his first
words will probably be along the lines of 'Fit dual Webbers' :)­

Thanks, Ed.>

Should be a Spica pump then.
Check http://www.wesingra­m.com/ the most reliable knowledge source on
Spica's (Believe me, I have a Montreal with 8 cyl. Spica)
You can also check www.alfamontreal.in­fo and look at the things they say
about the Spica, TA etc.
The how-to's are quite extensively described.
Although all in reference to the 8 cyl version, but the principles will be
the same.
My assumption is the TA (temperature actuator) is defective
Just give Wes a call and I guess he'll have some free tips
