Mine starts quite easily after a day or two with just one light depress on the gas pedal. Longer not running than that though it can be a bear to get gas to the cylinders and I have been doing a lot of pedal pumping. Thanks Tim for the great manual reference, it made me remember ---- I do have a choke ---used it just a bit this morning and voila, started right up. Like it was supposed to. How did I forget about the choke for so long??? let me guess. Guess I can't remember --- but thanks again for this thread and for the quick lesson (learned long ago but forgotten) and reminder.
