Electric choke

Changing old carb and old manual choke cable. Holley carb has like two female plugs on the side for its electric choke. How do I wire these up so the dang thing will run without starting it twenty times? Any help greatly appreciated.

first one terminal is a ground wire just run that from the terminal to one of the screws holding the choke on. the other is for a power wire run that to a terminal on the fuse block that only has power when the key is on

Thanks for the help. Does it matter which is which on the ground and power? They may be marked, but it's dark out now, so I wasn't sure. Thanks again.

I think they are marked + / -, but if they aren't it shouldn't matter.
