[Healeys] choke question

In our climate Carl I find that the choke needs to come all the way up. 
Just try starting the car with the lever pulled up that extra 1/2 inch and
you will see what I mean.

Weather is getting cold and she doesn't like it-makes starting very
difficult
with about 15 pushes on the starter.

OK so jet control lever is about 3/4 in below fast idle screw with choke
lever
closed. With choke fully open jet control lever is now parallel to idle
screw
however I can pull it up another half inch by hand. Is this OK or should it
come all the way up with choke lever fully pulled?
