I had starting problem,the service department did shim upgrade.At that time they checked the computer for the recall and it was fine.It started perfectly the first three times out but is now starting very hard again.Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Pump ball, tiller twist handle all the way to idle,turn key. Once started it is fine all day long on restarts.

they seem to be a little cold-blooded,<br />my bf50 remote likes the choke engaged<br />fully on cold starts. once running it will<br />start easily, you had the auto start enrichment<br />adjusted, was there no improvement ?

It started perfectly the first three times out but is now starting very hard again.It was a major improvement.
