I believe the proper designation for what you're looking for is a Stromberg Model C automatic choke. It was used by Packard on the 1933 and 1934 Eights and Super Eights, and I believe all the Twelves plus the 1932 Twin Six. It was also used on the 1933-38 Pierce Arrow Eights and Twelves, 1933-34 Stutz DV-32, and a couple of models of Studebaker and Oldsmobile.
When properly adjusted this unit gives exceptional performance, I'm enclosing a useful article on set-up recommendations. Attach file:  Model C setup 1.jpg (756.35 KB) Model C setup 2.jpg (403.98 KB)

Ebay has a few for sale, used, complete around 350 Dollars. Is anyone restoring their Automatic Choke assembly at the moment? I am restoring the one on my 1934 Super 8. It was fortunate talking to Max Merritt staff and was sent a new choke spring, and the filter gasket. When those arrive today, they are going on the car and I am reinstalling the linkage. The Packard manual has detailed information explaining its operation. Will let you all know how it went.
