How To Disable The Choke Circuit In A Weber?

[65 Lotus]

Slowly getting my twin cam issues sorted, but still have a nasty miss going on in all ranges of operation except acceleration.

Would like to disable the choke circuit in the Webers to see if I'm getting fuel or air leakage through those paths.

Is there a graceful way to reversibly disable this circuit without having to resort to sealants (i.e., use of gaskets, blanking plates, etc)?

The external air feed is an easy one with a plate and gasket, but there's also an internal air feed and of course the fuel feed. Any simple methods?

Thanks all,

Scott

if you don't use the choke (and many don't use the choke at all) it is not in the circuit. I think your problem lies elsewhere. Have you looked at air corrector/emulsion tube/main jet assemblies to see if they are clear of debris?

If it is a carb fault then the only thing to do is to rebuild the carbs. Its not very difficult and not very expensive for the overhaul kits. However are you sure its not an electrical fault? Webers don't usually give problems except if dirt gets in and ignition problem is far more likely.
