Re: choke quickie
No, all the parts of the choke plunger are on the cable. The plunger itself has a slot in the end that the cable holds.
Be careful with the retaining screw, there's little access and it will almost certainly be stuck, meaning that you'll have to pop the carbs off to remove it.

Re: choke quickie
Sid isnt there a tiny spring in behind the plate that the retaining screw is holding on ? I'm sure it popped out when I took my plungers out and and went pinging across the front room.
Be careful with the retaining screws, if they are like mine were, they'll be really soft and its really easy to mangle the heads on them.

Re: choke quickie
The spring is on the cable along with the plunger, unless you remove the cable from the plunger the spring can't be removed.
