[QUOTE="roybird, post: 636020, member: 28318"] Hi All Apologies for long delay. I eventually solved the problem, via a experienced auto electrican. He ran a check on the feed to the carb ( it needs one for the choke to work ) to make sure it was live, it was. Then he undid the cap that covers the choke assembly as a final check, when returning the cap he noticed a tag that needs to engage with the coil inside and it was quite hard to see if it was engaged or not; it wasn't; so after some fiddling he was happy it was engaged and hey presto all is well; one press of the throttle to engage the choke and after a few turns she fires up. As suspected the choke was 'not' working and why it took so long to have it start. Now to sort out all the other adjustments I made to circumvent the issue. [/QUOTE]
