The tighter the internal spring, the longer it takes the butterfly to fully open. The loose fit of the pulloff piston in its bore also causes a slight vacuum leak which pulls fresh air into the choke housing to prevent overheating. The INTERNET, the MISinformation superhighway

I will crank it rich(er) & find/solve why the piston ain't giving me the choke pulloff. live every 24 hour block of time like it's your last day on earth

The amp draw from the choke is minimal, won't affect the ignition operation. When I tried this on my truck it would over charge slightly. From 14.5 to about 15.5v at fast idle at the battery. When I removed the wire from the choke the voltage came back down. I didn't see a voltage increase. Mine stayed about the same. 1968 Barracuda Fastback 318-2BBL 904 2.76 Frost Blue Survivor 1970 Roadrunner 440+6 BBL 727 AT 4.10 SG Dana Blue Fire Metallic 1971 Cuda 340-4 BBL 4spd 3.91 SG Curious Yellow 1972 Barracuda 318-2 BBL 904 AT 3.23 1 Legger Tor Red/White Vinyl Top 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 5.7 Hemi AT Patriot Blue 2011 Dodge Challenger RT 5.7 Hemi 6spd 392 SG Triple Black 2014 Dodge Charger RT Max AWD 5.7 Hemi AT 305 Billet Silver
