"Eddie" AFB carb issues..

With no choke, and snow on the ground , it's going to be a crank and pump ***** to start until you get some heat in the engine. Even if you have to hook up a manual choke cable.
Pateras, perhaps, a fully assembled carb would work correctly. Bitching about something that is out of wack with a "Don't buy this carb." Is a bit premature don't ya think?!!!

A choke is needed in cold weather. Just as much as air is good for you to breath.
Read the post. It states to not buy this Accel. pump, not the carb.; quite a difference. After I fixed the Accel. pump, my question was in reference to how truly important the choke is during the winter. Guess we can't all be as smart as the red-bearded clam.
