Anyone in Central MA with a 1964? - 63/64 Cadillac Website2024-03-29T12:09:17Zhttps://6364cadillac.ning.com/forum/topics/anyone-in-central-ma-with-a-1964?commentId=6543066%3AComment%3A202994&x=1&feed=yes&xn_auth=noAgree with all of that if run…tag:6364cadillac.ning.com,2019-05-26:6543066:Comment:2029942019-05-26T17:10:03.312Z3hmkdw99k7hluhttps://6364cadillac.ning.com/xn/detail/u_3hmkdw99k7hlu
<p>Agree with all of that if running the car for half an hour includes driving it!</p>
<p>I had an electric choke, useless. Mine at least had zero temperature sensing. They just imagine a temperature and go with it. Choke-wise, my way works well too: three gas pedal pumps, pull the choke while the pedal is depressed to set fast idle, start. If it stumbles a bit, more pedal presses.</p>

<p>I gave up on the awkward hood release and since mine is not a points car, had someone add a normal hood pull knob under the left side of the dash, just like a normal car. Available at any parts store. Works like a charm. Pull, clunk, done.</p>
<p>BTW, I also got tired of hard starts and added a manual choke, like cars should have, made a huge difference.</p>

<p>The lower grill is adjusted so you can put your fingers up through the gap between the lower and middle grill. The lower grill is positioned behind the upper grill.</p>
<p>The lever is just behind the gap. I thought I had a picture, but I can not find it.</p>
