    It looks like everything on my dash is where it is sopose to be. Now my question is, what is the throttle choke lever thing for? I have mine in the dash right where it shows in the pictures, but what does it do, and where does it hook up? thanks!

    goes to a linkage on the carb so you can manually control idle speed.....don't have a pic sorry

    Oh ok that makes sense. So on those colder mornings it is much easier to start and keep running:) Thanks for the info!

    nickmil In mothballs.

    Well, that's really what the choke is for but it can be used in conjunction with the choke.
    Jeeps were set up with add on's like farming equipment, mowers, etc. that demanded a constant engine speed. That's really what the throttle cable is for, to set a given engine speed for running or pulling equipment so when the Jeep is bouncing around you don't have to attempt to keep the throttle pedal steady.

    It is an early version for cruise-control: you can keep slow-constanat speed while on a track or on a army patrol along the border . . .
