This video is going to be on installing and electric choke conversion kit on a Motorcraft 2100! both of my trucks(1970 F250 & 1974 F350)currently have heat activated chokes and I have never really adjusted or worked on the choke component on any carburetor until now. I recently did some research and learned a little on all three styles of chokes(manual choke, heat activated choke and electric).
I'm going to be using a conversion kit that I got from Mikes Carburetor parts. The reason I picked this kit over any other electric choke kit is that the ground connection has a sensor that gets a more accurate reading on the heat and keeps the choke on longer during start up. Which allows for better warm up and smoother drive when you get on the road. No more issues with the idle staying high or the engine stumbling because it did warm up correctly.
Kit information: Mikes Carburetor parts
website: Carburetor-parts.com
Part number: CU1110-Electric choke conversion kit.
There are a lot of other kits/parts that Mike's carries depending on your needs!

Did you know on Amazon they are using your picture of the two trucks with the hood up as advertising for a carburetor.

[@AJsGarage]

I had no idea, thank you for letting me know. What’s the link? Or product.

That little block is a thermistor

[@barrybebenek8691]

I wonder if the thermistor could be cut off and just wire the black to a ground.?. (Like most others are ).

[@AJsGarage]

I’m sure it could. The point of the thermistor with this kit though it to read the temp more accurate to make sure the truck warms up enough prior to driving.

[@NoferTrunions]

Any mention how many amps it draws? (Tip: windshield wiper is a place to also get key-on power)

[@AJsGarage]

Thank you for the tip. No I’m not sure, I didn’t look for that information but I’m thinking it would be very minimal.

[@bucksnbolders]

My aftermarket intake doesn't have a place for the tube to connect from the chock to the manifold, any ideas??

[@AJsGarage]

I think it would depend on the type of choke you have, easiest option would be to probably upgrade the choke. What type of aftermarket manifold are you running?

Ok did the truck have a heat activated choke? might just have to switch it out to a manual or electric choke.
