Ok, now I get what your’e saying. I’ll bet Don’s right about the quick start… most people don’t know the correct procedure. Squeeze the primer bulb untill firm. Do not advance the throttle when starting. Crank the motor over, THEN immediately push in on the key while the engine is cranking, and the quick start will do the rest. If you push in on the key [in the on position] before cranking the engine you will flood it out. Those engines actually start very well if everything is working correctly. Keep in mind that a draggy starter or a weak battery will result in hard starting problems, or the motor may not start at all.
Don, correct me if I’m wrong on the starting procedure, but that’s the way I’ve always done it.
