The button is there to keep the choke wide open. I removed it to make the action of the choke smoother. It always seemed to hang up a bit when I pulled on the choke.
I lived in a cold climate then. Anything to make the choke action smoother when firing up the old beast at 10*F helped.

So if I remove the button it could possibly solve my problem

Likely plus the cable adjustment I mentioned.
