"Keep Alive" is a software concept within the chip. There is no device that controls it, and therefore there is no "power feed" for it.

Maybe you're thinking of something else? The Idle Air Control motor, maybe?

Whatever pin has the battery power all the time. I think it is B1.

Whoops. I was thinking he was talking about keep alive spark, etc. Sorry about that. What a complex language we use, eh? Either that or I'm just a moron.

B1 and C16 are continuous voltage on the '165.
