My 318 has no choke thermostat in it. I have one to put in, but where does the wire attach to? The wiring was heavily "modified" by a previous owner. There used to be a wire coming off a field wire, was that it? Thanks!

If I remember, that's an electrically assisted choke. There is a three prong switch back by the distributor the wire attaches too. It will feed power to the choke only when the key is on and there's oil pressure.

Thanks guys!
I am going to go with the field wire. I got hold of a complete intake and there is no evidence of a timer on it.

Since it's just an emission control device I think I'd snip the wire and call it good. Robert
