Chock Rod

[Vetcol]

My choke rod hits the dash and is chiping the paint any suggestion?

 

[glenn in camino]

It probably did that when it was new.

The car,...what year and month? How long is the chock rod?

I know this is some bother, but there is different lengths of rods.

 

[Bob C]

Maybe you have the wrong rod, they had three lengths.

Darn Dudley I typed to slow again.

 

[Vetcol]

28 Tudor, seems to look like a repro not sure. The thing keeps turning to the right without a stop.

Were is the chock rod bracket...on the tank, from the firewall?

Bob, I started typing before Glenn posted....I type sloooooooow.

on the tank

 

[d.j. moordigian]

In inches,(sorry about that) if it's around 8.5"-9" that takes a short one, about
21" long.

 

[Vetcol]

It's 8 1/2" from the firewall, and the rod is 27 1/2" long.

 

[Bob C]

The rod were 22 & 26 inches for 28-29 and 28 1/2 inched for 30-31 according to the parts book.

How close does the knob come to the dash normally?

Took me a moment, too. But it's a word Spell Check wouldn't flag.

Chock Rod on eBay

I could put that in my tool box right next to the head wrench I bought from you! On second thought, I don't have any chocks that need rodded.

 

[Vetcol]

Never mind I'll just street rod it with a chevy engine, and drive train. I guess a guy can't mispell a word here.

 

[wrndln]

We are all retired English teachers here, so watch your spelllling! Ha Ha!

 

[Big John]

Lighten up, vetcol... Just a litter humor now and then......oops...

 

[d.j. moordigian]

Ok..Ok......I have a good excuse....I have a reading disability! Geeezzzz..

Vetcol, you need the shortest of the those "fargen rods"! What is your gas
tank date?


* Hell....Rusty knows I have a reading problem....boy you guys are some fun..

Never? If yes, then it has a problem with the gas valve at the carb OR
the coupling from the "rod" to the gas valve.
