Can anyone explain how the electric choke works on the Edelbrock 660 in regards to starting after the trucks already been running and driven. Mine is not wired in and restarting the truck tends to be a pain in the ass. Also is there a way to test it to make sure it’s actually working before or after it’s wired in?
Should have looked where you lived before I hit the quote button and started a post. But too late, loosen the choke thermostat with car cold or cool. Yes cold or cool. Now hold the throttle open and rotate the choke tstat until the choke is just fully open,not cranked open, just open. Now it may be harder to start cold,and may not drive well for a minute or 2 after starting,but see if your hard start hot goes away if so,you've found the problem. Now at this point you need to decide if you can live with the cold drivabilty,if so you're done. If not we can tell you how to wire a choke properly. I tend to run no choke,the choke causes an over rich condition which contaminates oil,and washes the oil off the cylinder walls. Pick your poison pump the throttle twice and keep it running with the throttle for a minute but minimize cylinder wear or jump in push the pedal once and go.
