I've had a different experiences than Chuck. Through Kawi, 494, and 493, there have been plenty of times when I had to use the chokes after I've run the car the same day - even cranking up on the grid sometimes. I am looking forward to cockpit accessible primer in my new car. Cory

A shot of ether into the air cleaners and between the 1st and 3rd pull it fires. Warm the engine up for 2-3 minutes and it will fire first pull for the balance of the day as long as it is run every 2 hours or so....a litter shorter time if the ambient is really cold....in the 40's or 30's....run just enough to keep a little heat in the engine.

Isn't there a way to convert these to a dash mounted lever? I may need to start the motor by myself. --------------------------------- Any questions? Get answers on any topic at Yahoo! Answers.
