RivNut Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 If I were you, I'd 1) Buy a Carter brand coversion kit, not a universal one. 2) Wire the electric choke through a dual terminal oil pressure switch. Oil pressure closes the switch and then current can flow to the choke. If you run 12V directly to the choke, it will start heating the instant the key is turned on and will continue getting 12V through the cranking, and any stalling and restarting that may take place. Using the oil pressure switch, you only get 12V to the choke when the engine is actually running.There's an article on this conversion in the Tech Tips section of the ROA's website that has parts numbers and suppliers.Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
