Please Make Me a Pull Out Choke. I mean it this Time!

[Bilko]

Every choke I've ever had fails and the only way it's been sorted is with a flip choke, but I hate having to take the side panel off every cunting time I want to start the Lambretta.

Send your old choke to Byron mate

I've tried three diferent levers and it's the same.

The plunger hardly moves. I've one of Knowledges cables. I've tried an ordinary one.

Always had this problem on every Lambretta I've ever owned.

Me as well bilko...a cross of cheap and nasty taps and my hamfistness...lol,

last time you asked and there was a post with the pull out type (old mini like) but not dellorto compatible...not that got me thinking, what about buy one and get that lovely chap from ipswich to make a bespoke cable....he is nice like that....aint you Knowledge..

I had a T5 fitted with a 28phbh. Vespas use a choke cable similar to the Mini type and the previous owner had drilled a hole in the flip choke lever and made a simple bracket to hold the outer cable. I say simple, it was only a piece of metal bent into a Z shape with a hole for the inner cable to pass through and another for one of the carb top securing screws. Worked a treat

Having said that, I have no problems with the choke with either of my lammies, one with an OKO 28/30 and the other with a 30 phbh. Both use a standard cable and standard lambretta choke lever (one Italian and the other Indian plastic). I did play about with varoius angled tubes to take up unwanted slack though.

It's doing my head in.

I've put a plastic lever in and it turns ok, stiff, I've replaced the plastic pin cover and pin from another choke and attached that.

It seems better. I'll give it a go and see how it goes.

GRRRR-f@@k--c**t-b@5t@rd-GRRRRR

Feel better now.

Use an adjustable cable from Chisel speed.....on the Dellorto PHBH you can see the plunger going up and down, so its easy to adjust it.

I have this one in my TMX35 and works very well:

My carb is VHSB so I can't see the plunger.

This is what I want for the Dellorto. I really wish someone could make one.

I have just checked my VHSB 34 , If you shine a light down the hole you can just about see the side of the plunger as it goes up and down, not as easily as the PHBH but do-able.
