electric choke

[evolutioneng]

what part of the solenoid do i hook the hot wire from the electric chock too.i have it on the right side of the solenoid ,im having second thought if i have it wired up right.im trying to install a stereo too.can figure that one out.did how the instructions told me but no good luck. the radio turns on when i wire up the red and yellow wire up to the hot off the batter to the "I" on the solenoid but wont turn off once i take the key out nor motor turns off.

The electric choke needs to be wired so that it is powered when the ignition key is in the 'on' position only.

The stereo's red wire should be wired so that it is powered when the key is in the 'on' and 'acc' positions. I would connect it to the wire that powered the previous radio through the radio fuse. The yellow wire is for the stereo's station memory and that should be connected so that it is powered all of the time - through a fuse of course for safety.

Connect the choke wire to the stator terminal of the alternator.

where the alternator hot wire goes to the solenoid?

[BobbyFord]

At the vacant stator terimal on the alternator

[evolutioneng]

thank you.im going to look at the alternator tommarow when the sun is out. your talking about the plug on the alternator?

[BobbyFord]

There is an empty stud on the back of the alternator, marked with an "S".

[evolutioneng]

thank you

[evolutioneng]

i could not find what stud it was .i seen two .one close the the fendwell and the other near the water pump..i should of tried both since their is a fuse on the choke but need not think at the time..

There is an "S" cast into the alternator body near the stator stud.

im getting power to the carb but im not to positive its closing.should i tune the carb since i moved the choke? it opens up quite fast .warmed up the oil to operate temp. but still shakey at idle.. max vacuum is the key?

[evolutioneng]

choke wont close at all// what could that mean? im trying to upload video now.does not close.. i have a holley 600cfm vacuum secondaries which would be the rear bowls correct?

[evolutioneng]

will it get power with the ignition turn to power or i need to turn on the truck so it can heat up the choke element then it will shut off when the alternator turns off?

[Nitekruizer]

As was metioned above, connect it to the stator terminal on the back of the alternator. The terminal is marked with an "S" or "STA", which is cast into the alternator case. That is where I connected mine. The choke will get power as soon as the engine is running and won't get any power when the engine is stopped. This is perfect because the choke only needs power while the engine is running.

thank you guys so much!
