Electric CHoke ??
My 78 Ford F-100 has a 351 with a holley 650 Carb from a 1985 Ford in it . How Do I hook up the electric choke on the carb since my truck did not have electric choke ?
Thanks

you need to run a ground and a positive wire to it. I hooked mine into the tach wire on my car not the best way of doing it, but it works.

I would convert it to a manual choke.
