Ok, so I have determined the purpose of the electrical connection of the Sisson choke is to close the choke plate when the car is cold and the starter is activated.

Why? The choke plate is already closed when the car is cold.

If you have the correct carb, and the choke is adjusted properly, I do not think it will be closed.

 

Edit:  and by that I meant.......... will not be closed without the Sisson activated.

The choke should on close to 75-80% cold After the throttle opened slightly to let the choke and high idle linkage move in to the correct position if is adjusted properly. Has been posted here several times before how to adjust the choke.

 

The electric choke will close it to 100% only when the starter is engaged and will drop back to the 75-80% closed after starter is released. Will slowly open to 100% open with manifold heat.
