Re: Warm starting/choke problem

Thanks all.

Had it happen again tonight. This time on the road while picking some stuff up at the store. I just took off the air cleaner cover and had someone crank it for me while I operated the choke and throttle from under the hood. She fired right up. I'm convinced its just an issue of the choke not opening at all when the engine is just a little warm. When it is HOT, it starts just fine - so if I shut it down and restart it within 5 minutes or so it works fine. It's the semi-warm start that gets me (say after 10+ minutes to more than an hour).

Anyhow, I'm going to try and mess some with the pull off and see if that is the issue. Hoping it's just out of adjustment.
