    1974 recall clearance?

    I guess they want this to check and see that any past recalls have been taken care of. All I was told is that a recall clearance checks by VIN # . Other than that, I have NO idea either :duh

    Is the choke working?

    There is not GOBS of current there , If that is what you do,you dont know what your talking about, never take power from the coil period,the choke is a big resistor,the bi-metalic spring gets really hot and that is why there is a vacum line in it to cool it down

    Is the choke working?

    First of all never take power from the coil,you are reducing the available voltage on the primary side of the coil,find yourself a 12 volt power source that is keyed with the ignition on,you can find this with a test light on the fuse box and then run a wire to the choke.set the choke to be...
