  1. Mad Jack says:

    The choke needs to be connected to a circuit that always has power when the ignition is on.

    The electrical power is required to operate a heating element to open the choke. If this electricity is shut off, the choke will partially close and you will have the problems you describe.

    The partially closed choke is also killing your fuel economy and performance.

    Find a more suitable source of power for the electric choke.
