Most of the model number is missing so I hope what I have is enough. It is a 4 cycle and has the Solenoid on the top of the Carb. Does that work as the Choke, and if I put voltage to it out of the Carb should the rod move? If you put your hand over the horn it will start and run as long as you keep it partially choked until the engine warms up then it is fine. I see the solenoid is expensive and want to be sure before I order one. This is the part number and description 6G8-1410A-01-00 STARTER SET.

Thanks everyone

my guess is it is not a solenoid, but a prime start heater unit.
voltage from lighting coil while motor is running will heat uo the unit and cause the needle to move out slightly to close off the extra fuel flow after motor has warmed up

I will be posting after you a different question about the same outboard model. It does not seem to matter on the last few numbers as the motor was the same for quite a few years, just small model changes it seems.
