To resolve this: 1. Move the accelerator to the intermediate position. 2. Close the choke when cold. 3. Check the fuel tank and remove any water or sediment. Make sure that the feed cock is open. 4. Check the lines and bands. Repair or replace if damaged. 5. Use oil with a viscosity suited to the temperature. 6. Replace winding or start mechanism. 7. Clean or replace spark plug.
