[QUOTE="ssayzarc, post: 365928, member: 15134"] So just to make this plain...you do NOT have a choke on this and many many other outboards....you have a fuel enrichment valve...equals the same thing(you can reduce air or supply more gas, it does the same thing ENRICHENS the mixture for starting)...this is a great system that has been used for many years on millions of outboards(on larger mercs/yamahas people call it push to choke but uses a solenoid to activate the enrichment circuit on carb by ignition key push). You may or may not need some carb cleaning/work I didn't understand if you ever to follow the steps he laid out for you....by closing butterfly you choked the engine and that worked so I would try using valve and then pull plug after two start pulls(or key turns) and see if wet.
