Manual vs Electronic 2TC Carburetor

So I took pictures of the carburetors side by side for anyone that would like to use this for reference.


First up is the Manual choke Carburetor off my 1971 Corolla.

Work the same the only thing is added is electronic element for the choke and shutvalve solenoid .

Both are 12v switched power source

As Bob said. Both operate mechanically the same. You may have different jets which could benifit when tuning.

The question to ask is: If you choose the carb with electrical devices, do you have any idea where to connect them?

I'd choose mechanical as that gives less things to think about and connect up.
