Choking big engines?
Just curious to know how everybody chokes their big engines. I have a moki 2.10 with a bisson pitts style muffler. I cant get at the carb with my finger and it seems difficult to reach under my wm extra300s trying to hold 2 fingers over the exhaust with one hand and cranking the engine with the other. JUST WONDERING IF THERE WAS A BETTER WAY. Thanks.

I friend of mine, has the red rubber cap over his plug igniter and sticks it in his cowled engine area to close off the carb intake to choke the engine.

Well then, you could use a small priming bottle with an extension on it like I do. Just make sure the ignition is off for gas, or your glow ignitor is not connected. I just squirt some fuel in and flip it over 3 or 4 times, close the throttle, connect the ignitor and start the engine. Give it a try.
