The secondary choke cable are the thin cable with barrel on one end only and a
metal flexible outer sheaf that will slide off the open end. The bj8 also had
a plastic black outer cover.



Slide the thin cable thru the choke block holes from the bulkhead end and then
thru the choke bracket screwed to the bulkhead. The outer metal sheaf can then
be slid up from the carb / open end till it sits in the small tubes on the
bracket. Then slide on the black plastic outer cover (I used pnuematic nylon
air tube), its end will slide over the tube on the bracket.



The other end of the cable has a bracket again with a small tube welded to it
that the metal cable sits in and the plastic outer covers. It is fixed to the
air filter fixing stud that mates with the carb. A choke pin assembly is like
a trunnion, and goes thru the choke arm on the carb and then has the thin
cable locked to it with a nut.



Now when you pull the choke main cable it will pull the block and secondary
cables and so pull the choke arms up. The main choke cable returns when you
push the knob in, but the secondary cables/ choke arms need springs to return.
These are fixed onto the pin ass'y / arms and points on the inner wing
reinforcement strut.



Hope that helps

Andy
