As last resort, can you grind, file, fabricate a replacement using a piece
of phenolic, etc.

Subject: [MBZ] Carburetor Trouble
RE: Autolite 2100 Carburetor - 72 Ford F250
I have now isolated my immediate problem to a plastic part of the choke
mechanism which has broken off and allows the choke to fall into whatever
unregulated position it feels like.
So my question now is: anyone know where I can get a replacement for this
part? I presume it would not be included in a carb kit.
And why make a part out of plastic knowing that in 40 years it will weaken
and break?
In order to show pictures of the broken part, I set up a Craigslist ad
with the pics included. I don't expect a response from the ad, its just a
way to make the pictures available. Here is the reference:

My spouse would like me to get rid of the truck, which we don't use
anymore. Are there individuals out there that still want an old truck with
such poor gas mileage, given the direction of gas prices?
