When I first bought my car (1984 Firebird SE) it was already messed up.
The wiring was bad, and everything else was rigged.

Anyway, since I've got the 350 in, I went to rip out the computer wiring, and I tried to do it right. I got the loom from the passenger side, and it intertwined in the middle with the loom from the drivers side, and they were all held together with two clip things that were "T" shaped and held everything together.

So, the choke was originally hooked up wrong, and I re-used the wire from the Rochester in the new carb, and it was in the computer loom...

So I cut it, and hooked the Edelbrock choke to a Key-On source from the drivers side.

Now I get a choke light, and my windows don't work.

hmmmm...
Any Ideas?

 

Alright, I've gotten it down to this.

The wire that the choke was originally hooked up to is Blue.
I assume that this is the factory Choke Heater wire.

When it is not hooked up to anything (as it is now) the choke light does not come on. Until you try to roll up/down the windows. They do not work, and the light comes on bright and strong. When you release it cuts off.

If I hook it up to my choke, the light comes on, and stays on, and doesn't go off at all.

Does this help at all?

Thank you all.

 

Well.

I'm sure this wasn't the way to go about it, but i just shorted the blue wire to the fuse box. This seems to be a fix, as the choke light is off, and the windows and such work.

Any reason this would happen?

I guess it's fixed, unless it's going to start a fire!!!!

ha ha ah.
