<p>Good info. I'll add one more thing: On my BJ8, at least, the
choke knob has to be held forcefully full out; if the return
springs are working at all the knob will slide in a little
when you release it. This could possibly make the difference
between a start or not.</p>

quite low at cranking speed, much lower than with HD6’s as
the 8’s have 30% larger choke area for the same volume of
