checked the compression in a while. Will do. I keep thinking
it's a choke problem, but they seem adjusted ok.<br>

it start easily with chokes after warmed? Point gap? Compression

(capitalized, as it is The wisdom). My BJ8 runs fine, but is
very hard starting. The carbs are adjusted per the
instructions, as is the choke. Not easy to do the choke, but
done. When cold, the choke is needed for starting, and in fact,
almost won't run without it, but once it's warm, choke not
needed.

Battery is charged, electrical connections all tight. In fact,
the starter spins rapidly.

I have found that if I depress the float on one of the carbs for
a couple of fuel pump clicks (in other words, priming it), it
starts right up and idles and runs fine.

Any ideas will be appreciated.
