I've got a spare live cable, two wires connect to the choke but there is a third and I can't see where it's suposed to connect, I've searched within the cables reach to no avail, it's a '65 mustang and as far as I can tell it how it left the factory...and ideas?

Mine (1969) had a wire to a fuel cutoff relay/switch(?) on the carb, switched with the ignition.

Don't think so, mine had a BFO 4 barrel and 6mpg. Might be the same principle.

6mpg? are you sure you had a carb and not a pipe straight from the tank!
