I have a late 60"s thunderbolt 500 with electric start. The choke operates by pushing in the key which closes the choke. Should it stay closed once I release the key? Mine doesn't, and the engine won't run properly with the choke closed. I have to remove the engine cover and push down on the linkage to open the choke so the engine will run. Should the choke open again as soon as I release the key or will it open on it's own when the engine starts?
