Need a choke?!

Post by cherylhindley »

Hi can I get a new choke cable for my T25 1.6TD?

Short and sweet I know but searched on google with no joy!?

Cheers Cheryl 8)

Maybe it's because you are looking for the wrong thing! It's not a choke - it is a cold start or advance cable.

Brickwerks do them, not seen them elsewhere. I thought my van was a petrol conversion to diesel when I first found the 'choke' particularly as its not attached

Brickwerks only have them for LHD - or that's all they had when I last looked. I just made a new one up , it's not difficult.
My last 1.6 didn't ever need it to start but the 1Y that's in there now won't start without it.
