32ADFA Choke unloader - Missing

Post by AZRoadster »

Not sure if this is a problem or not. I have not seen this engine run well yet. I have found a bunch of items that could lead to a poor running engine. I am not sure on this piece missing.

No diaphragm, or push rod.

It is a serious Problem.
Without these pieces your engine would never run well :wink:

Rubbish, it just means it doesn't have cold start enrichment and fast idle, not the end of the world.

Rubbish, if you live in Australia. :roll:

A choke is very important for colder climates.

And its much easier to handle the car as daily driver..... :!:

Isn't the missing diaphragm (readily available) the accelerator pump? Important piece.

Thanks guys. I will find, at minimum, the diaphragm that fits, but will look to replace all the bits.

The rebuild kit I am using had a diaphragm that looks like it should have gone here. But, it is smaller version around 2/3 of the size of what is needed. All of the other gaskets/parts fit perfect.

Dan,

I've got the original 32ADFA off my car as well as most of another one.
You're welcome to them if you want. I just have to remember where I put them.
I'm out of town this weekend, but will look when I get back.

We do have winter. I have no cold start enrichment on my IDFs, in winter I have to start it on the accelerator pumps, and it runs like a dog until it gets up to temperature, after that it's quite civilised, and I use it as a daily driver.
