...anyways, I was wondering if your choke is working? All a choke does is enrich the mixture which is essentially what you are doing.
Too funny, you have good timing. I actually adjusted the choke last night because it wasn't closing all the way. I did that and pumped my pedal slower allowing the acc. pump to raise and it started this morning without starting fluid. I'm getting closer, still unsure if my timing is right or not. It still pops a couple times here and there but I think I'm gonna just start driving it as is.

I'm afraid if I mess with the idle mixture that I'll do more damage than good since I'm clueless at this stuff.
