| If you ditch the computer controlled car the computer will become useless. You will also have to get a non computer controlled distributor. The choke shouldn't pose any problem sense many carbs come with an electric choke. |

Ya i'm going to get the distributor too. I'm just checking to see if the electric choke is conrtolled by the computer or not. If its not then how does it know when to engage and dis-engage?

It gets a 12v signal when you turn the key on. From there it runs the power through the thermal choke spring inside. The spring grows rotating the choke lever as it heats up.
