Question about below information
"""Remote Keyed Ignition
There are two basic types of fuel systems to aid in cold starting. Solenoid activated Choke plates and solenoid primers. The starting procedures are the same for each.
Place the motor in fast-idle and in neutral gear. Depending on your remote control box, this is acomplished in one of two manners. If you have a dedicated fast-idle lever pull that up between 3/4 to full. If you have a single-lever control and don't have a fast-idle lever, pull the throttle out to lock the engine in neutral and push the throttle forward. If you have a dual-lever control, leave the shifter in neutral, and advance the throttle.
Push the key in, activating the choke plates or primer.
Turn the key to start.
After the motor begins to run, release the key so it returns to the run position and disengages the choke/primer.
As the motor begins to stumble, bump the key in activating the choke/primer. You may need to do this several times until the motor can fast-idle on its own.
If you tilted your motor up for cold-start, lower the motor to its normal operating position.
Visually inspect tell-tale for solid stream indicating proper cooling.
As the motor warms up, slowly begin reducing the fast-idle until the motor is able to run in normal idle on its own. """"
How do you place the motor in fast idle??? I have been looking at other posts and maybe i dont have this feature or capability. I have a 88 Stratos 201 Pro with Evinrude V6 XP200. Any help would be appreciated. I have cleaned and inspected battery cables and conections and all is good. Only thing I know of on my boat is to push key in for the choke.--thanks, Bobby
