Soooo for the last week or so my 75 blazer (350 SBC) has been struggling to stay running at low revs. Yesterday there was a bit of electrical smell and a tiny bit of smoke form under the dash. At least one fuse (gauge cluster) has gone and when I tried to restart to check and removed the air cleaner I found the electrical choke stuck open, not adjustable manually at all.

Going to remove dash later to see if there is anything SUPER obvious like a short or touching / loose wires, but any ideas?
