From: out of my mind; be back in 5 minutes....
Car: 1989 Firebird Formula
Engine: Internal Combustion
Transmission: Completed
Axle/Gears: ones that turn.
There should be two spots on your fuse panel marked 'IGN' that have power only when the key is turned to 'RUN' and 'START'. Tap into one of those, and be sure to use a fuse, as those points aren't protected against overload.

The Choke heater needs power all the time that the motor is running. It is used to turn OFF the choke as the motor warms-up. You "turn on" the choke by pressing in the gas and releasing BEFORE starting the motor.
