For those of you that have already converted over to an electric choke, where did you pick up 12 volts from an ignition keyed source? The distributor does not provide 12volts because of the resistance wire. I thought I read that electric chokes pull about 3.5 amps and perhaps I could run a wire to the alternator with a 5 or 10 amp fuse. Suggestions?
