I addition to what Glenn offered, first I will assume that you don't use the choke when the engine is warm.Each carb is different (only slightly), but generally you will run significantly cooler at cruising speeds with the mixture at 1/4 turn open than 1/8 turn open.Heat can cause a number of interesting side effects including intermittent failure of the condenser.Intermittent condenser failures are rare but I've seen a few.

I've also seen reproduction choke rods which have a screw on knob.The rod would stick closed but the knob would turn with enough drag that you believe you are adjusting the mixture!It's a real long-shot but I had to mention it.
