3.0 omc 1989 rochester 2bbl carb

Good Day, I was wanting to find out when you put the choke cover back on how many turns do you make with the spring for the choke to operate properly? I can see the alignment marks, But when I had taken it off the winding had came to fully unwound. Thanks in advance for any input!!! I had to take it off to tighten the 2 screws that keep it in place as they were loose and alot of air was coming out. I just want to put it back properly.

you dont...you rotate the cover counter-clockwise until the spring tab is above/before the lever in the housing...

then cartefully install the spring cover and turn clock-wise until the marks line up...you should see a little tension on the chocke rod as you do this...

in very warm weather you may not...
