Banshee0028 Posted November 20, 2003 Report Posted November 20, 2003 Ok, simple question: When the Shee is cold (First crank of the day) is it a good idea to hit the gas a few times before starting it? OR pressing it while kicking it over? I always use the full choke when cold, just did not know if I should also be pressing the throttle while kicking? Also, when NOT pressing the gas, it seems to crank over more, But maybe thats cause for the 1st couple kicks I pressed the gas Quote
kenr74 Posted November 20, 2003 Report Posted November 20, 2003 I usually open/close the throttle a few times. Mainly just to make sure they are moving freely. I don't normally hold them open though while kicking it. I'm sure one of the experts on here has a better answer for you. Quote
philshee Posted November 25, 2003 Report Posted November 25, 2003 I never touch the throttle until it fires up. Mine floods out if I'm even thinking of touching the throttle. Quote
Wallrat Posted November 25, 2003 Report Posted November 25, 2003 If mine doesn't start in 2 kicks I'll give a little blip on the throttle as I kick it. Anymore than just a c-hair of throttle will flood it. Try a couple kicks after that and if it still won't start, check the kill switch. Quote
Stylemaster Posted November 25, 2003 Report Posted November 25, 2003 i always blip it twice then kick it till it starts i do it with the 400ex too blip it a few times wait till it fires blip again start fire and do that untill tis runnin and idling Quote
Banshee0028 Posted November 25, 2003 Author Report Posted November 25, 2003 I think next time Im gonna kick it W/O touching the gas until it cranks Thanks Quote
