Kelvin: On this carb the sheath is stationary and held fast with a set screw.
The inner cable attaches to the arm that activates the choke. It is backwards
on my carb as I have tried to reroute the choke cable and it is a bit too short
altho I can get it to reach. Problem is that the loop is at such a severe angle
that the cable binds. I can get the choke to open but it binds open and I have
to restore it to the closed position by hand.
