Hello this motor is new to me and runs well after starting but whenever I start it I need to engage the fast idle lever and choke it regardless of whether its been running or cold. Its not a very smooth idler but to my knowledge none of these engines are. At higher throttle settings she runs smooth, but if I shut her down and restart I have to use choke and high idle settings. Has anyone else had similar issues? Thanks. RomanM.

sounds like the linkage is out of wack.check all the linkages for engagement timing.

Thanks. I'm assuming you mean the throttle linkage?? Or is there a more relevant linkage around the carb which you might be talking about? R.
