you connect it where the stock would go maybe you need to splice it.

Green thing meaning a plug? Get a test probe to find a 12v + power (key on) in that green plug. Connect the choke to this power source.

No I'm afraid not..do you still have the stock carb by any chance? There were a couple elec plug connections on the stock carb, do you remember disconnecting them? If you don't have the carb anymore, that's ok. Look at the pass fender well area.. These plug connections (female end) should all be there & still remained connected to the cars engine bay elec harness.. You can quickly identify them as round & green in color. You can get your 12v power source from one of these plugs to operate & run the choke on your weber. This12v power is also wired to the cars ignition (on & off) switched

that green connector you need to cut the wire and hooked the weber coil wire to it. or like the other member said hook it up to a key on 12v.

follow the wire from the coil to the green connector and cut it.
