Here's a pic that will show you the tension adjustment if your choke does not stay out when you set it. Don't over tighten it or you will damage the unit, only tighten enough to effect a difference. If enough tension isn't available then replacement of the cable is needed or you can try loosening the 11/16 nut behind the bracket a little and tightening the front nut pictured.

 

wheres the picture

 

clothespin works good too.

That's OK, maybe rounders will show up, another 10 pages easy.

 

Yeah he will probably want to spray some pledge on it or maybe put blue Loctite to hold it in place. Clothes Pin only if you cannot adjust it correctly

10 Years old but still relevant if your manual choke is not staying out. Couple of YouTube vids showing how to adjust.

 

And if a hair over-tightened, then snap and time for a new choke cable

 

I've used tywraps. I put that bleep on everything.

In general I prefer anti seize to loctite
