yea easy job if its a carb.but the car engine must be cold when adjusting.both electronic and water chokes are held on by a pinch ring with 3 small screws, loosen the screws so the choke turns.turn the choke until the tension on the choke butterfly (the brass flap on top of the carbs primary venturi) loosens ( keep tapping the butterfly down to check tension) if the tension increases ur turning the wrong way if the butterfly opens your going the right way but you've gone too far the butterfly should be only just closed.if u mean the idle speed when cold is too high (sounds like over revving) then there is a small screw located behind the choke mechanism located this first u may need a small mirror then start the car and turn the screw until the engine revs about 1200 rpm but be quick and don't rev the engine or the choke will come off and revs will lower anyway so u need to switch off the engine and wait for it to cool a little bit b4 re adjustinghope this helps

Engines with automatic chokes also usually have an automatic throttle which is supposed to run the engine at the best speed. Changing the choke would probably also require coming up with some way to change the throttle.
Loosen the cable at the carb and hold the choke valve wide open. Then tighten the cable. Check to make sure it closes all the way when you pull the choke lever.
(1) Loosen the choke cable at the cable control bracket but do not remove it. (2) Pull cable knob or lever all the way to closed position. (3) Manually close the choke baffle all the way. (4) Tighten the choke cable at the cable control bracket. (5) Ensure choke opens and closes properly by pushing and/or pulling the cable knob or lever.
When engine is cold loosen screws on choke cover, or drill out rivets. Hold throttle part way open, then turn the cover until the choke opens, then slowly turn the choke cover the opposite direction until the choke closes all the way. Mark the cover and tighten or install new rivets and you are done. Good luck Jerry
Check the power to your automatic choke and check the choke pulloffs. It sounds as if the fast idle cam is not coming all the way off.
i had the same problem and it was just that the idle screw needed to be adjusted. its on the right side of the bike and its a little knob that you can turn with your fingers. Start the bike with the choke on and let it warm all the way up and then adjust the knob clockwise to make it idle faster until you can close the choke all the way
by turning or loosening the choke you are increasing the diameter of the bbl. by tightening the choke you are decreasing the diameter. all the way tight is full choke about 6 clicks open is modified and about 6 more clicks open is improved cylinder. shoot your gun on full or all the way tight into a target then open the choke up to modified shoot again then open it to imp. cyl. and shoot again. the clicks you may need to turn your particular choke may be a little different than mine. kell.
Depending on the year, early Beetles, (i.e., the original run from '49 to '74) start just as you start any early car with a carburetor. If it has the automatic choke, and the engine is cold, push the accelerator all the way to the floor once and let up immediately. This sets the choke. Then, just turn the key over until it starts. If it fails to start, don't pump the gas endlessly. Try once again first. If the car is warm, and has the automatic choke, it should start without any accelerator manipulation. If not, hold the gas pedal about half way down and crank it over. For older Bugs with the manual choke, it works thusly: If it's cold, pull the choke all the way out, and give the gas 2 or 3 pumps. Crank it over. As the car warms up with driving, slowly push the choke in until it runs at a good idle speed. If it's warm, then you leave the choke in, and start normally. If it doesn't start right off, again, let the gas in about half-way.
Just to the right of the LH grip you have rotating choke lever. All the way up is no choke, Rotated all the way down is fully choked.
same way as you do an adult. BUT DONT
AnswerComputer controlled and not adjustablethere is a way by tightening throttle cable or screw by throttle body ( but i would check o2 sensors first)
