Sorry to cause confusion, --Gnarlie.  I often forget that the fairer sex
numbers among us and diesels are sorta a guy thing.  Diesels do have chokes as in:
"Hey, Homer!  No wonder your D-9 ain't got no power; you left the warm-up
exhaust CHOKE valve closed."

Even if diesels did not have chokes, I would have invented them just for the
effect of the image.
