Thank you sir! I will check the choke cables, compression and spark... stay tuned!To adjust the cable back off the adjusters at the carb plungers and at the choke lever there should be some free play. The free play is checked when the choke is in the off position and you lightly pull out on the piece that the lever attaches to. Do not flip the choke lever at all, leave it in the off position. With the choke adjuster nuts backed off you should be able to pull this out quite a bit until resistance is felt. That resistance is the plunger starting to lift and the spring above the plunger compressing. You only want to be able to pull the cable out to about 2-3mm of free play. I will adjust one at a time, you will be able to feel the reduced free play as you go. When I feel the change initially I stop and adjust the other side until I feel it starting to take up some free play. Then adjust both slowly until the 2-3mm is achieved. I then confirm the choke operation with fluid at the closed position.
