I put on a Street Demon carburetor this weekend and in the process rerouted my fuel line (that was fun...) and finally checked the voltage on my electric choke line that was put in place by the shop that restored my car. The reason I was looking at it is because it was a (blue) wire off of the alternator and all of the instructions say don't wire it to the alternator. I checked the source and it appears to be a keyed voltage source, but only measured 10.4V and not 12V like the instructions say. Is this a normal condition off of the alternator or does it indicate other electrical problems somewhere? Will the 10.4V cause problems for the electric choke?
