If you wait 10 seconds, the choke is already heating up and opening. What I did on a car I used to have was wire the choke power through a temperature switch (approx. 60 degrees IIRC) that I strapped to one of my heater hoses. When the water in the hose, or outside air temp, got to that temperature, the choke received power and started opening up. I didn't have to have a switch under the dash and remember to turn it on at a given time. It worked flawlessly for me.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span style='font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p><span style='font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black'>Steve<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><span style='font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><div class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><span style='font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black'><hr size=3 width="98%" align=center></span></div><div id=divRplyFwdMsg><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black'> Tigers <<a href="mailto:tigers-bounces@autox.team.net">tigers-bounces@autox.team.net</a>> on behalf of snakebit289 via Tigers <<a href="mailto:tigers@autox.team.net">tigers@autox.team.net</a>><br><b>Sent:</b> Friday, October 20, 2017 9:12 PM<br><b>To:</b> Tiger List<br><b>Subject:</b> [Tigers] Holley electric choke starting</span><span style='font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black'> <o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><div><div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1508558349681_5929"><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='font-family:"Bookman Old Style",serif;color:black'>A question about starting a car from cold, with an electric choke Holley.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1508558349681_6116"><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='font-family:"Bookman Old Style",serif;color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1508558349681_6117"><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='font-family:"Bookman Old Style",serif;color:black'>Do you attempt to start the car the instant you switch on the ignition...or do you wait 10 seconds for the choke to set before cranking it over? I've gotten both scenarios from Holley discussion groups. All I know is that at +50F, the 10 second rule seems to work better- at below that temp, nothing works well or consistantly.
