Hi, I did a search but can't find this specific answer. Based on pics, can anyone tell me - Is my heat riser open or closed? It won't turn and unbolting the exhaust might seem easy but moving it out of the way would be a pain in the A (no room). The flat area on the knob is pointing vertical. (up/down). Turning riser counter clockwise will open it, correct? Are there any other markings?
Since I don't drive it in winter and have an auto carb choke, I just want it open all the time. I think its partially closed since that side is running around 720F. The other side of engine is running around 650F. Heat riser might have been fully closed before I owned it because I had to weld up a nasty manifold crack (I didn't have to take it off). Thanks guys!
