i have a 1971 chevy cheyenne truck. the truck only starts when you manually open the choke by hand. what can i do to fix this problem so the truck will start without raising the hood and manually opening the choke to crank it.

thanks for your time.

You need to adjust the initial choke opening also make sure the plate is not binding
