it has to crank way too long to start,once it warms up it fires up just touching the key,but after cool down it goes back to long crank time,i am moving the throttle up a little but it doesant seem to help on cold start,and when it finally fires it runs crappy for 15 seconds,do these things have chokes ? yes i am priming the bulb.can anyone explain thier cold start proceedure so i can match it to mine.
). Push the key in and hold for a ten count or so then release. Engage the idle throttle the way you have been, then turn the key to start while once again pushing in the enricher. Once she fires up hold the enricher in until things smooth out (shouldn't take long at this point), let her run just above idle for a few seconds to get good and warm, then kick her back down into idle. She should be purring like a kitten at that point. Based on your description I think what you're experiencing is perfectly normal. Let us know if that routine works for you.
