Just have tried it with the diode but no luck :-(
The diode is ok - i have checked it with a bulb.
Was removing the charging bulb and the same...engine does not shut off.

Now i find out that the voltage regulator is not connected. There is a plug under the regulator with 4 wires. The wires are jumpered.

The cable where the choke was connected is a black/white one. It is on the same harness as the alternator but i have no idea where it ends.

The choke cable is hot when ignition is on.

Seems a constant enginge compartment light is not the worst thing.
