[QUOTE="huntinfool, post: 144394, member: 1931"] I have the same motor and have had the same problem. There is not any real choke on it. What it has is a solenoid that allows fuel to go the the carb. As you continue to allow the switch to be turned in the on position it slowly closes the solenoid. So what you have to do is pump the prime bulb and then turn the key and just stay on it. It will fire and start running. I have had the same problem at the launch. I use the trolling motor to get out of the way and then start it up. My motor takes about 15 seconds to start the first time and then I can hardly turn the key with out it starting. If you want more info send me a PM and we can exchange a phone number to talk on the phone...there is too much to post here. [/QUOTE]
