Detailed Description

Hygrade CV255 is a carburetor choke thermostat made for Ford carburetor applications listed with Holley 4180 units. Fitment includes 1983-1987 Ford Bronco, E-Series Econoline vans and Club Wagons, F-150, F-250, F-350, LTD, Mustang, and 1984-1985 Mercury Capri applications, with notes tied to specific carburetor calibrations and codes. This makes the CV255 a focused replacement for owners restoring or maintaining older Ford and Mercury carbureted vehicles.

The electric assist feature supports choke thermostat function in systems that rely on electrical input for choke control. If you are sourcing a Ford Mustang carburetor choke thermostat, a Ford F-250 choke thermostat, or a Ford Bronco carburetor choke thermostat, CV255 provides a fitment-based replacement path. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 2-30123, 2C1215) for the same application.

Hygrade has served the automotive aftermarket since 1919, and that long-running carburetion focus is reflected in the CV255 part number and application coverage.

What It Is Used For

• Replacing a worn or failing choke thermostat in a Holley 4180 carburetor setup.
• Restoring proper choke control on carbureted Ford and Mercury vehicles.
• Addressing hard starting caused by choke-related carburetion issues.
• Correcting poor cold-engine operation linked to choke thermostat wear.
• Maintaining original-style carburetor function on classic truck and car applications.

Match the vehicle year, model, and notes in the fitment table to confirm application accuracy. The CV255 part number should be checked against the existing unit and carburetor identification before installation.
