4 A AUTO-RETURN CHOKE SYSTEM
AUTO-RETURN CHOKE SYSTEM
[FE 8VALVE—UNLEADED FUEL, MIDDLE EAST, and F6—GENERAL]
r ~ I
76G04A-066
An auto-return choke is adopted to prevent the catalytic converter from over-heating because of over
use of the choke. This system opens the choke valve by causing the choke knob to return when the
engine coolant temperature is more than 67°C (153°F).
TROUBLESHOOTING
Note
Make the system inspection first. If no problem is found, continue with the next inspec-
tion of the Troubleshooting Guide. (Refer to pages 4A—16, 21, or 22)
