It either be fine
OR
the choke will be permanently on on the right cylinder
OR
anything in between!

OK. Best thing is to try screwing in the choke cable with brass choke and spring attached.
If it can be lifted up and drops back down under its own spring pressure , then it'll be fine.
If it sticks at all , you need to file something. A bit !!
