Drive it!
I like to run a ground wire from one of the 3 screws that hold the choke thermostat on, to the spot on the engine where the neg battery cable attaches, to insure ground to the choke. I do the same from one of the vac advance screws on the distributor.
Sounds a little extreme, but everything works best when properly grounded...
