When its idling i play with the choke and on full there is 0 change in rpms. If its cold i might have to use a spray of starting fluid to get it started then it idles fine and full choke has no effect the only info i could find on this said its possibly so rich that its not effecting but it should start fine..which it has trouble doing when its cold. Is this too rich of carb a bad thing? It runs and idles fine so playing with setting seems ??? But i want it to start righ up without having to carry around a can of spray. Advice? Would upgrading the electrics/battery/starter do anything for this?
If it runs too rich alot it will wear out the rings and cylinder. Gas washes the oil off. That's why efi engines outlast carburated( no choke)
