It just needs a delay relay, a bit like the sort of thing you sometimes have on the interior lights. Set for maybe 10 minutes delay. That would allow 15 to 20 minutes before the chokes were really shut again. I guess it might need a 555 chip or something to run it. Fun college project maybe for someone out there. Don't know current consumption, but probably 2 x 0.5 amps would be close, so a few minutes shouldn't drain much out. Easy to check though. Hmm - maybe I'll try out a few things. It's not so much of a problem here, but it can be annoying to have the engine racing at 'idle' in public. Dave.
