Your TPI didn't have a choke, but since the base models were carbureted, I'd have to imagine the wiring and dash warning lights may be the same. Did you grab an abandoned factory wire to hook the choke thermostat to, or wire it new? And what kind of a carb did you use, I'm supposing it's not a computer controlled one like would have come factory? Sometimes, a choke light isn't related to the choke, but is an indication that the charging system isn't putting out a sufficient amount. Check your alternator output with a volt meter.
