Lets say the crossover is blocked off such as with the Edelbrock heads. After the car warms up, do you constantly power the choke thermostat to keep it open? Or will the thermostat burn up?
the power is an automatic feed from control unit as soon you start your engine ( key in run ). If wired like factory did, you don't control that, just ign switch and it decreases the power when engine temp is reached, thats the deal for the control unit. If wasn't in that way wouldn't make sense hook a control unit, instead wire the choke directly from ign switch
Hard to damage the choke really
LATER models ( the round ones ) were also used along with a three prongs oil sender switch, where the power to controil is turned on just when oil sender sense the oil, meaning engine is running. In that way you won't heat the choke just switching on the ign swithc at RUN without start the engine
