Start problem of MM1000 - every time want to must do Choke or must do accelerator to Start the car -start only key ,have to try 2nd or 3rd times - what is the problem ? after start not any problem -

Cold engine...choke only, experiment with different amounts of choke to find the best for your conditions

Hot engine...little bit of accelerator or maybe not at all

If everything is in good order, then the engine should start immediately, but engines may vary in their starting characteristics.

Thank you Mr. Chris - I will check it -

I was wondering,have you checked,cleaned and regapped your spark plugs,because thats easy to do and sometimes gets missed because it IS simple (speaking from my own experience)

And gapping the plugs DOES make a hell of a lot of difference to the running. I think some modern mechanics just bung them in and don't think about gapping.

If you want a job doing....
