Thanks. When I had it apart I could see how it works, and set it so the spring is engaging the lever. It is a bit past the middle hash mark so there is some initial tension on it. When warmed up, it does rotate that lever on the top of the choke side fully, but even in that position it doesn't seem to fully rotate the fast idle cam. I'm temped to just dremel a bit off it.

Yes I have adjusted the choke idle screw and feel its in a good spot for cold starting. I does cold start really well, it just take a LONG time for the choke to disengage, and even fully disengaged it can still just barely catch the throttle, keeping it in fast idle.
