Damn, even with 10 of them, I sure would hate to have to take the damn cowl off each time I tried to start it. And if it took to long to put the cowl back on, would it loose prime so that I'd have to do it over again?

Seriously, I'd put a choke on it, and power it via a servo for easier starting if the carb is in the cowl or is hard to access the choke lever. This can then also act as a secondary kill method should the throttle linkage foul.

I put the choke servo on my snap roll switch (since I never use it for snaps). I hold the button in while flipping the prop (choke on). As soon as it pops, I let go of the snap switch (choke off) and it just keeps on running. It saves me from putting my hands in the prop for the three or four extra flips after it pops to get it running. And the more time my hand is out of the prop arc is a plus in my book. Its simple, fast, and safer IMHO.
