My Street Demon install experience

Do you need a choke, it depends....
I had the 625 street demon on my truck at 0 deg F start on the first crank, and jump up on high-speed idle.
Push the petal once, roll the engine and fire up to an idle speed, that I could walk back in the house until it warmed up. Way nicer jumping in a warm truck.
Did this several times, when my wife would steal my Jeep to get to work in deep snow.

That’s what I’m talking about. Lol ! Sure, an electric choke is remotely necessary if you want to walk away from the car immediately after it fires. Otherwise, it’s not. With a manual choke, you don’t have the convenience of immediately walking away from the vehicle when it initially fires, either.
