Pete Phillips Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 I'm changing the leaky valve cover gaskets on my stick shift '64 LeSabre tonight, and noticed that the hot water choke housing is beginning to leak a little. Buick only used this hot water choke on the 300 V8 and only for a year or two, I believe. If anyone has a spare housing, it looks like I will need one soon. Amazing how clean this old engine is underneath the valve covers! Pete Phillips, BCA #7338 Leonard, TX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocks Rod & Custom Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Hi Pete, I have a choke housing from a 2bbl rochester setup on a 300. I recently purchased a collection of buick parts and I don't know the condition as far as leaking. If you still need one I can send you some pictures, it is still mounted on the engine. Thank You Jason Rock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
