66 318 Poly 2 Barrel Stromberg Choke Thermostat Part #

[OG_CHGR]

Anyone have a part # for the correct Choke Thermostat for the 1966 Charger 318 Poly 2 Barrel? The one in the car is a Stromberg Bendix Stamped "62" on the cover plate and "PBJ" on the spring. I thought I was getting the correct replacement but it's stamped "67" on the cover and "PBK" on the spring and the rod isn't long enough. See pics below, the old crusty one (left) is the correct one, has a longer rod and only one bend in it.

Nice work @ODZKing! I had seen those ebay listing but that "46" stamped on the plate between "Stromberg" and "Bendix" threw me a little because mine doesn't have that as well as the rod on mine having a bend it in and those looking pretty straight, but maybe the issues is mine is bent and it's not supposed to be???

I really appreciate finding that arizonaparts.com link though, I'm checking with them first because they are only like a 15min drive away so that would be great if they have one.

Thanks for the help!

Well, yours being bent may have been an adjustment. If you read the service manual on how to adjust carburetor related items, "bend" this or that is actually the solution. I know it was with mine as far as startup.
Yours does look as if it was straightened, then re-bent actually.

Ahh, ok. Bending it to adjust it is likely why I wasn't finding a new one with that same looking bend in it. Learned something new today, thanks!

If you don't find one, I have a 318 Poly choke pull-off.
Its an NOS part with the stampings "46" "Stromberg" and "Bendix"

If you don't have a service manual, you can download from my site.

But here is a quick snip with a short explanation.

Choke pull off but you get the idea......
