Colder climes would suggest otherwise. The original 2 bbl on the Tiger came with an electric choke. I’m not sure what the LAT option 4 bbl had but, I doubt it was manual (as a cable through the firewall and dash). The hole for the cable type in the dash was a left over from the Alpine. There is also the heat riser type using hot air from the manifold. Hope some of that helps. There are others with far more knowledge that I.<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class="MsoNormal"><br><br><o:p></o:p></p><blockquote style="margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt"><div><p class="MsoNormal">On Oct 15, 2018, at 4:14 PM, Joe Brown via Tigers <<a href="mailto:tigers@autox.team.net">tigers@autox.team.net</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></div><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div><p class="MsoNormal">I want to get some opinions.
