Electric Choke
I have seen this has been discussed before but I couldn't find the previous threads, sorry to bring it up again. I need to know how to install the electric choke instead of manual one. I am changing the whole carb but I don't have any clue about electrick choke connection(s). Please explain it simple since this is the first time I am doing this. The wiring on the car is old one, I don't if it is original one though.
Thanks a lot. |

Run a 12v keyed wire to the red wire on the choke. Ground the black one on the choke housing.

This might be a dum question but What will happen if I don't connect the choke at all?

Be real rough to start, and keep running until it warms up... A motor likes a rich environment for starting in

Make sure you use a true 12v source. If you hook the choke to the coil it will not be 12v (If the coil is wired correctly).

I did mine to the fuse block. There should be a few open spots in the bulk-head connector. I just ran the wire with the coil loom to the bulk-head connector and used a two into one spade adapter on the back side of the fuse block. Should be able to get the terminals for the bulk-head connector at most auto parts stores.
