It turns out that the choke cable from TRF is the type that you need twist 45 degrees to the right to get it to lock. I may have ordered an early cable by accident or maybe that is the one TRF sells for all TR6. In any event, I like the pull and twist to lock mechanism better than the old one I had for late model TR6. As you stated, on that one you just pulled out and it locked where you pulled. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Jim<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b>From:</b> Jack Mc [mailto:McGaheyRx@aol.com] <br><b>Sent:</b> Tuesday, June 07, 2016 6:25 PM<br><b>To:</b> James Henningsen <trguy75@gmail.com><br><b>Cc:</b> triumphs@autox.team.net<br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [TR] TR6 Choke Cable Question<o:p></o:p></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>If you have return springs on your choke assemblies, you have carbs earlier than 75 or you have return springs installed on later carbs that did not originally have them.

Is this the problem you are fighting? If so, you either need the earlier choke cable or you can remove the springs from the chokes - but the earlier chokes with return springs are not otherwise completely identical to later chokes and they won't work perfectly without the springs.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div id=AppleMailSignature><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div id=AppleMailSignature><p class=MsoNormal>Cheers,<o:p></o:p></p></div><div id=AppleMailSignature><p class=MsoNormal>Jack Mc<br><br>Sent from my iPad<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><br>On Jun 5, 2016, at 12:30 PM, James Henningsen <<a href="mailto:trguy75@gmail.com">trguy75@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></div><blockquote style='margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><div><p class=MsoNormal>I am replacing my choke cable on my 75 TR6 with a brand new one from TRF. It has been a while since I changed one, so please forgive the simple question. I have the cables attached to both carbs securely. When I pull out the choke via the choke knob, the cables will not stay engaged with chokes open. The springs on the carb choke assemblies pull it right back to off position. I have tried this installed in dash and now not installed in the dash (hanging below free). Both times the choke will not stay on. I thought the original choke cable had two holes that engaged the choke open at two positions. There are two holes on the metal assembly.
