To give a bit of background before I start:
My 1991 Waggy is set up for dual-fuel, with the original carb for gas and a propane mixer bolted on top.
It runs great on gas with plenty of power, but is very under-powered on propane and doesn't idle as well.
This is my first carbureted vehicle so I'm really learning from scratch here.
Before I go in over my head and start playing with timing and tuning, I want to get everything set up properly.
Now, I recently noticed that my electric choke switch is disconnected with the connector just hanging loose.
I'd have thought that this would have caused problems running on gas, but it starts (hot and cold), runs and idles really nicely.
Is there often a reason that people might disconnect this; can I just plug it back in again or will that screw everything up?
