1. Run a switched 12 volt wire to the electric choke. It's best not to tap into the ignition power directly to do that.

2. The ECM controls the EFI injectors, ignition timing advance, transmission torque converter clutch lock-up, and fuel pump power. You need to power the fuel pump via a switched 12 volt source, provide a means of locking up the TCC (a search will show you the options there), and take the bulb out of the SES light.

I haven't heard that, but I believe the injectors are run on 5 volts. The choke would be very slow to open, if it would fully open at all.
