'74 autostick w/a 34 pict 3 Volkbitz refurbed carb. I've adjusted the choke when cold.

When I set my cold carb in the AM, the throttle arm only goes half way up the stepped cam. I figured it should go up higher for the auto choke.

I'm getting power to the auto choke (used a test light).

Funny thing is, once I get going, the engine THEN goes into auto choke fast idle. When it does warm up, the idle drops as it should.

More annoying than a big deal. Thoughts?
