Yes and that the throttle needs to be held slightly open as well when turning the choke coil housing, otherwise the idle screw holds it in one place.
Food for thought, I had a friend with a 70 camaro, someone put a holley on with electric choke. They simply ran a wire from the coil + (still a points car) to the choke, choke never worked right, would run great cold but never come off the choke, like it was stuck.
It was only getting 6v (resistor wire for voltage to coil).
I ran a new wire from the fuse block to the choke and it worked great with 12v.
