The choke solenoid sits on the bottom of the carb and has one wire going to it. That is the positive, 12 volt wire. The solenoid grounds through the mounting strap. Apply 12 volts to that wire and it activates the solenoid. What kind of ignition switch do you have? One with a "push to choke" key or one with a separate choke button?

Just run a jumper for the 12 volt wire from the hot side of the start button to the choke button. Then run a wire from the other side of the choke button back to the choke solenoid.
