I am installing a 30mm oko cvk carb with an auto choke into my beast. Does anyone know how i wire up the auto choke to the electrical

I believe it just needs 12v positive supplied. Find a switched wire from the ignition switch that is hot when the key is turned on.

The choke "fuel enrichener" has a little pin that moves in and out. There is an spring element that heats up and retracts the the pin. When the engine is hot it stays retracted.

I notice that the carb has 2 wires in the plug. One is yellow and one is green. I assume one is positive and the other is the ground. If that is right, which one is which ,and i suppose i could just ground the ground wire right to the frame?

I think that would work. I would power the yellow wire and ground the green one.

If you take the enrichener off you should be able to watch the pin move.

Ground has been green on any of the China stuff I've messed with so far. Let us know what you use for an intake tube.
