I wish you were closer as I’d help you out on that choke. I’ve had a few edlebrocks that came with and I converted to electric choke. The 3 things that matter and easy enough to do but easy to overlook.
Make sure the spring on the inside of the choke assembly engages correctly, just google the instructions for orientation.
Set it dead ass cold with the key off, all you have to do is rotate it till the GAO is right on the butterfly.
Lastly the choke idle screw adjustment, reason I mention that is I’ve seen people adjust the round plastic piece and never touch the idle speed screw trying to get it to idle right when choked.
When set right you turn the key, push the pedal to the floor one time and fires right up. If you go manual choke you have to make the same adjustments anyways
