Thread: Engine won't run with choke flap fully closed

Ahh, interesting, I really appreciate the thorough response. Well that's definitely a relief to hear. So there's less atomization because the gas is cooler and therefore denser?

Perhaps I should start a new thread for this, but I got a vacuum gauge to do some carb tuning and I found the intake manifold vacuum (at idle) is very low, approximately 6". And what really worries me is the lack of fluctuation upon accelerating/decelerating.

I'm thinking it's most likely a vacuum leak, however I am also considering a timing issue. I'll evaluate the situation more when I get the carb rebuilt though. Thanks again for the awesome and quick response!
