thanks
Hi all - would anyone care to comment on the relative merits of auto/manual choke? and what I should go for?
Only looking for a minor upgrade to 32/36 DGAV/DGV. Depending on feedback anyone got either spare?

100% manual, gives you control, atomatic never knows just how much or lirttle it needs plus they are a pain in the butt and never work properly.
Manual every time, gives you control in all circumstances. The Weber system is coolant controlled, and has all sorts of springs, pull off valves etc. which might work ok when new, but when thngs wear and become maladjusted, it can create more problems than enough.
I bought a manual choke kit for my old Weber DGAV from a local motor factors - under £10, I think.
manual - a primitive system based on springs, metalic strips, wax etc, is never gonna be as good as a human brain, well, in most cases it won't be.
great, so that's either pretty conclusive or fairly unanimous then
thanks
manual everytime for me - exactly what I have on my Indy. Simple, effective and reliable - exactly how it should be.
Manual!
Auto chokes are nowhere near as reliable and you get zero control!
