TODAY is a Great Day to visit our Store and order the parts you need for your truck ! ! !
Rochester, qjet, M4MEAnd it doesnt make sense to take off before the high idle kicks down, or else the drive shaft will clunk into gear. How did these trucks start in the morning when they were brand new, did the salesman at the dealership sit there and then punch the gas to kick it down when taking someone on a test ride? Or did he clunk it into gear right away while the engine was racing? Just saying...
If your choke is setup properly yes it will automatically kick down for you.. That is the whole point of the choke.The choke is a timer and it can open slow or fast depending on weather. If you have it open to slow it will run in high idle for too long and if its too fast it will cause bogs when you try to drive it. Finding the happy medium depending on the truck and weather is the difficult part.Some people choose to kick it down earlier so they can drive off.

What do i adjust to get it to kick down easier and faster,,,wothout stomping on the pedal, if the manual says in 30 seconds slightly depress the pedal to kick down the idle.......then how do i do that?!!? I do appreciate the feedback. Thanks.Yes, i would like to kick it down earlier, so i can drive off.
Electric choke on a carb will not kick down by itself.
