Electronic Choke???

What do the wires coming out of the choke module control or sense? Do i need to have them attached?

The choke is a semi-automatic choke, meaning you pull it out when the car is cold. The sensor on the back of the water pump housing will tell the electrical magnet choke to release when the engine gets to temp.

If you are builing a track car, you won't need a choke will you?

I completely removed the choke on my daily driver when I rebuilt my carb. All I have now is the fast idle which will probably work OK for you in Seattle.

Ya thoes wires just run an electromaget switch by a sensor.

A steel cable actually runs the choke
