Hello,
My cooling system works well and I have a firewall insulator on my car so I run a nice warm 180 degree thermostat year round. The engine can run warm and efficient without cooking the passengers in the summer, and hopefully keep the passengers warm on those cold Michigan fall/winter mornings.
Since it is just a cable running to the choke I am no longer able to adjust the GAV on the carburetor. My car always ran the best when the adjustment was turned out about a half of a turn. When I hooked up the cable I marked it so it would be fixed in that position when I hooked up the cable. It seems to be running great.
