I can't remember offhand if your 17056206 Q-Jet has an electric
choke or not but IIRC it'll have the barrel-style choke housing.
If it has a nipple for a hot air source you can cap it (otherwise
it'll be a small vacuum leak) and install an electric choke disc
from another Q-Jet; that's how I usually do it.  A few years ago
I took all my discs and sat down with them and a 12V battery to
determine how fast each one opened and tagged them accordingly.

What exactly does divorced choke mean? Is that the thermostatic kind? I have a manual choke on my El Camino but I want to go w/ electric for the Malibu. I guess I will give rebuilding my Q-Jet a shot since I basically have nothing to lose.
