A new motor was put in my 74, it has a 750 edelbrock with electric choke. The choke will not close the choke flap when engine is warm or after a quick blip of the throttle after the engine has been ran for a little while. It idles at 2k RPM. Any ideas on how to fix this? It's not likely that any of the components are broken as it's only about a month old. Also, I checked and there is 12V going to the two leads on the choke so that is not the problem.

Help With Electric Choke
The choke should not close when engine is warm,only when cold. You should have 12volts on one side of the choke and ground on the other,if you have power on both sides of the choke you are missing the ground side.
That might be part of your problem there isnt suppose to be 12v going to both. One is a ground. Sorry I did not refresh before I posted so I didnt see the other post. Make sure your 12v connection is a keyed connection as well not a constant 12v.
Or just take the choke off.
I've ran without a choke for 3 years now and I never had a problem.
The carb breaths more, and if you rebuild it right, those edelbrocks wont need a choke. There is somthing wrong with your carb if you a need a choke to start it.

That is if you live in a hot area all year long. It can still get in the low 40s at night up here. Trust me carb companys would not spead the extra $ to put a choke on if it was not needed,
Thanks for all the help guys...Unfortunately I was an idiot when I was playing with the throttle cable and changed the setting on the curb idle screw 
...I backed it out and it solved all my problems.
