automatic choke

Wen starting my 94 ls 400,it goes to 1500rpm and after 10-15 mins will idle down to 600-650 rpm. How can I disengage the cold start sensor? Has anyone got diagrams or photos?

Hey you made it over here from the FB page!

Note part number 2326059035. Its the cold start injector, labeled in this photo as 23260.

it is supposed to work that way. If you start the engine when it's hot already it will idle at the normal RPM. There's no reason to remove the cold-start injector.

He wants to remove it to save fuel and because the weather is in his favor where he lives. Its definitely an odd request, but he is trying to save fuel/money and i guess that works for him.

the fuel savings are minimal, and the result of removing it will be greatly reduced catalytic converter life as the initial warm up period is meant to speed up cat light-off.
