Default Getting Back To Two-Stroke Engines

I'm just getting back into the hobby and so I re-built two OS Max H60F Gold Head engines. I noticed that when I choke them with my finger over the carburetor they don't seem to pull fuel steadily like I remember seeing it being pulled with my OS 91 4-Stroke engine. When I choked my 4-Strok engine I could see a very steady stream of fuel being sucked through the translucent fuel tubing that went to the carburetor. Should I see the same level of suction with the 2-Stroke engines? I'm asking because it seems like when I tilt the airplane straight up the engine leans out a little.
