Choke cable swop

[Cadence]

A dumb question - is it possible to change just the inner choke cable and leave the existing outer in place (Sprint on Webers)

Thanks

Yes you can, I would cut the carb end off first get rid of any kinks.

I have changed inner choke cable and knob on my car without a problem. Just make sure the end of the new cable is not frayed in any way otherwise it can be difficult to slide it in without catching.

Thanks everyone for your quick replies - that’s an easy job now

Ha! That's funny, Alan, different horses for different courses.

I use my choke/starter circuit every time I start the car from cold. I do it because it works flawlessly (don't touch the accelerator!) and I like to keep all the parts moving rather than doing nothing and potentially gumming up with our ethanol laced fuel.

Anyway, the Heath Robinson/Rube Goldberg mechanism appeals to me. It's too wonky to ignore!
