Dale, not to hijack Doug's thread(of course not, I wouldn't do that) but
I'll bet you can answer
a question I never really had a need to know but have always been a little
curious about. I know
the difference in function between a swinging choke and any old filter
choke, but what's the
difference physically? Just the core gap size?
