At this time I just have the stock water temp gauge and I will use the green wire that runs to the other side of the engine compartment and attach the the passenger side sending unit. Thoughts and wisdom?
My electric choke gets its +12V from a wire that was hanging under the hood and hot with the key on. I assume some previous owner simply cut the TCS.

It has worked well for me (the wire I'm assuming was TCS) as my electric choke power since 2004.
