Choke Question

I have an Edelbrock 1406, so it has the electric choke. The choke is hanging up, when the truck is cold I have to close the choke by hand. It releases ok as it warms up. Has anybody else had this ? It seems like it needs a spring.

Is it wired right? Mine wasn't. Make sure the choke is cold, adjust it to desired choke and tighten. Run a ground, and a hot wire to an ignition fuse plug. That fixed my problem.
