Choke Shafts?

Post by Darryl's CBX »

I know there is a difference between the left & right choke shafts, can someone send me a picture of the left one on the spring end.

I was not the one who took them apart and didn't identify left from right.


The previous owner kept the carbs numbered in 6 coffee cans, so he did that right!

Thanks in advance!

According to Mike Nixon's Book they are different, but he dose not say how to identify left from right.

Thanks for the reply Brother Darryl!

They are absolutely self - explanatory when you get to reassembling them. The left won't go into the right the whole way and vice-versa. Springs are right and left too, but you should be able to figure it out. Holler if you need more help.
