Re: Runs terrible after sitting over night - Need HELP
Choke blade should be fully closed when cold.
As soon as motor starts it creates vacuum which pulls the choke blade open via the linkage rod. The rod needs to be adjusted so the blade opens about 1/4 inch to allow the motor to run.
The length of the choke spring rod determines how quickly the choke fully opens. A longer rod opens it quicker.
You need to find the compromise where the choke blade allows it to run nicely as the choke blade slowly opens completely.
If the choke blade opens too far too quickly it’ll also make the motor run rough and likely quit.
It’s all a balancing act.
