I installed a rebuilt motor with the cross over plugged. Installed an electric choke, connected the choke lead to the battery post of the alternator. Started the motor up and as I would goose the throttle little sparks could be seen at right hand side of throat of carburetor, and sometimes around the choke housing.
Do I need to put a ground wire from carb to block?
Just a little bit tense to see the arcing around the carb.
