Good morning,
Can anyone assist, as I am not happy with the choke cable on my AG?  Please see the photo attached.
Please note the fuel tank.
Regards,  Tim

As you still have the original choke swivel why not use that but reverse the wires with the one going to the dash connected to the bottom swivel hole and the top one going to the choke.

Good evening Dave,
Thank you for your suggestion but I am not sure how it would go. Do you have a photo of one?
Regards,
Tim

I'm not sure the angles would suit the d/d carb you have; this is how the swivel is connected to the original carb set-up:

Here are the photos on a 22FZB            the wire starts at the steering column bracket and connects to the top hole in the swivel the second wire goes from the swivel bottom hole to the choke. For your carburetor the wire would have to go from the steering column bracket to the bottom hole on the swivel and the second wire from the swivel top hole to the carburetor.
