[QUOTE="Maddog, post: 385738, member: 5355"] A somewhat simple fix after I finally got around to working on it. Earlier this summer I convinced myself I was too busy to do that. LOL. I found that the auto choke mechanism was not moving freely and would not close all the way reliably. I fully cleaned that area with acetone and an old toothbrush. Earlier I was just blowing down the area with compressed air. Then I replaced the spring with a new one. Luckily I have a parts store about 3 miles away and it is a low cost item. Now it starts in two pulls on a cold engine. Just like when I bought it. I feel if it had a primer, it would start in one pull. ? I am so glad I never ran ethanol gas through my small engines. I think that would have caused issues with the carburetor too. Thanks everyone for your comments. It is much appreciated. I enjoy this site for all the insights and knowledge you guys have. Not just hunting and fishing, but everyday living topics. (Well some of you guys anyways. Probably not Camp**. But "he" sure is good for political drivel. What a waste of my time reading those topics. ) [/QUOTE]
