Let me know if that works.
If you have to choke an engine after it is warmed up and during regular use, you have a problem with your fuel mixture settings. The choke is for starting only. After it is started, it should run smoothly without the fuel being adjusted externally.



I agree. The only thing that might have happened if the saw ran completely out of gas before it was refueled, it may need a little choking to get the fuel up to the carb, but after that, it should choke itself to death.


I said it was counter-intuitive. I also said it worked for me---more than once. So, what's wrong with trying it?
