    Wiring carb

     



    Hey Folks,

    A while a go I posted about my wiring issues and some people were nice to enough to make me a diagram. I was wiring my distributor right to the power source, which doesn't work because it just kills the battery (electric choke). I'm wondering how I can get the dist. to a power source ?

    This is a custom build.. Jeep TJ with a 350 sb. I tried uploading a photo not sure if it will work or not.

    What power source can I connect the dist. too? Or do I some how put it too a fuse box?

    Thanks in advance

    This diagram doesn't show with CARB... I mean CARB not distributor. Original post I say "dist" which I mean carb.

    Holley Carb .. brand new.

    The diagram is correct. Distributor (ignition) and electric choke need to be on a switched 12 volt power source, i.e., not directly to the battery so that there is no power to the choke unless the ignition switch is in the "on" position.
