Fuel Mixture Engine starts without choking

[rjriggs]

My engine starts without choking. Is this a problem? Does it mean my fuel mix is too rich?

just very slightly too rich.
but it's ok. I'm always in too much of a hurry to warm up my engine so I enrichen the idle mixture so that on hot days it will start without the choke.

without snow on the ground, these will often start with no choke - just takes maybe 10 extra feet of pedaling

i have never used the ckoke on mine and refuses to start with it but i have the right mixture according to plug colour

the plug color shows the mixture at full throttle only, not at idle
