Post in Parts Wanted for best response. That will be a tough one, though.

Hot Air choke tube

Hi all

I'm looking for a new or already used hot air choke tube in good condition.

Engine is an Oldsmobile 307cui and carburetor Rochester M4MC. The car is an Oldsmobile 98 Regency (1981).

My one is broken :/



Thanks for your help!

Fusick don't have the longer tube, which I need. But the little one should work. And I don't know if the flange with the 180° folded tube from 74 on the engine of the 81 works. Everytime the wrong part breaks :/

No one makes those anymore, so used it your best bet. Are there any salvage yards in your area? Around here, there are still lots of 307 cars turning up in the yards. I'll check my stash, I may have an extra.

Yeah, always seem like there's at least a couple of cars in the boneyards around here with 307's to nab parts off of. I have a very nice choke tube (the big one with the rubber on the end ) from my 307 if you can't find one elsewhere.

John (2blu442) has some - he sold me a set. They were not exact for my 72 350 but the lines are easy to make minor bends to. I used a shorter stove, but it works fine.

Over the weekend I saw that a large Napa store had a universal replacement for the lines. They were easy to form aluminum and came with a ferrule and nut.
I think it was 10 bucks.

No, there aren't any savage yards in my area. Only savage yards for european cars, no us-cars :/
