I recently installed a Weber conversion kit to replace the Aisin carb on my Toyota pickup. I have everything all installed and ready to start tuning, just have to get some other stuff done on the truck. I need to install an ignition-hot power source to the electric choke on the new Weber.
The company I bought the carb from suggests I find an alternative ignition hot source. Is there any compelling reason I can't just use the original Aisin choke power wire instead of trying to track down another power source (like the wiper power)? It seems a lot cleaner and easier to splice into the original power, and I'm not sure why they suggest otherwise.
The only thing I can see is that it doesn't look like the choke was originally a fused source, but only fused through the fusible links instead of a fuse block. Some people view that as a huge problem, but if the factory didn't think so then I'm not sure what the problem would be.
