My second 1965 Dodge Dart.

My engine did not want to start and run right away, it worked fine, the next time it did not. So, back to troubleshooting. I found that the little pot that take off the choke was leaking. So, some people say, oh, don't worry about it, just adjust the choke entirely off, and pump the gas pedal. It will soon run fine. Yes, that works too. But, a few dollars later, I had a new pot from Standard Motor Products, and it was put on the carb. and the choke adjusted and the car behave so much better. Imagine that, something works again.

The only difference between the old and the new one is that the new one has a straight tube for the hose, while the old one has a bent one. The result is that the hose has to be a little longer. I needed a new one anyway. I wonder a little if I can take my adjustable wrench and bend the tube like old one are. Or if that will damage the tube. I have not decided yet. The carb is the Holley 1920 carb. I think.
I have not had the carb open yet, so I don't know if it is dirty inside or not.
