I've rebuilt Holleys, Motorcrafts and all sorts of Rochesters ancluding Quadrajets. But putting an Electric Choke kit on this Holley 2300 is becoming a nightmare. I wanted to change from maual choke to electri choke since the chke cable bever seem to work right and I got tired of throttling up the engine untill it was warm enough to run with the choke plates wide open and the choke cable would never would open the plates back fully open when I engaged the choke to start. First, Summit sold me the wrong kit the -223, well then Summit forgot to tell me that I needed a -465 dechoke lever to replace the lever on the throttle plates that came with the carb, so I bought that direct from Holley. Then I found that the -223 was the wrong kit, and that I needed the -224 kit. Now this is great. I had to file the the dechoke lever so I could get it fo fit on the throttle shaft. Then I found that there was no inner lever and spring like the install manual calls for. Now I'm asking myself. What do I need a fast idle cam for, doesn't the choke baffles take care of that? And what do I need external vacuum for? I thought the whole idea was to clse the choke baffles when the engine was cold and slow open them as the engine reached running tempature.
Has any one else gone through this nightmare with the Holley 2300 500CFM Deuce, and can set me on the way to rightenous I realize that the kit is suposed to fit Various Holley Carb Both two and four barrel, automotive and marine. And maybe I'm lokking at this all wrong. Any tips or suggestions are welcome.
