hey guys, on my 1979 bronco, i was wondering how hard would it be to convert? i can buy the universal kit for 11.99 at a local shop. is there much f*cking around to hook it up? it dont need to be top of the line show-quality.
thanks

All you have to do is hook up the cable in the kit to the choke lever on your carb..

Nothing, per se, I just don't see the point of removing something that works fine and replacing it with something else.
