Yea...you don't need a seperate choke. In fact you don't even need to touch the carb. Just pull some fuel up with the syringe thru the primer line...open the carb and inject it right back thru the carb. Close the throttle back to idle and it starts every bit as well as if you had used a hand choke. Just make sure you recap your primer line when you are done priming it. On a few occasions I have had to prime it twice, but normally one time does the trick. </p>
