F15A Choke and Throttle rod and knob

[Jacques Reed]

Hi Mariano,

Here's some photos.

The throttle rod has two bends in it to clear the fuel pump. The choke rod is identical but straight, no bends.

The knobs are standard 1940 Ford car knobs. I think I bought 1940 Deluxe sedan knobs from Dennis Carpenter years ago. Have attached photo of two original ones for comparison.

Original grommets at the engine cover were metal ones with a rubber insert to allow friction to hold the throttle and choke at the desired position. Aftermarket ones from Dennis Carpenter are solid rubber and do the same thing. He also produces the original metal and rubber style too.

The slotted ends on the rod allow you to set the knobs with the choke and throttle fully off with the knob fully pushed in.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
