Default Where can I buy an auto choke housing?
For a 66' 289 2v Autolite 2100. The thread on my housing is worn out, so I cannot screw the choke tube into it. Seems like a hard part to find, unless I buy an entire carburetor.

its a common part from any junk yard, you may have to dig and get dirty but you should be able to get it for $10 at the most.

Thanks. It looks like there is a nut on the choke tube connection, mine doesn't have that. On mine the nut is on the end of the choke tube and the choke housing is just the thread for the nut.
