My 116 seams too lean. I manually choke it and flip about ten times to get good and wet. then turn everything on. I am going to disable autochoke when I get it back out this spring. I would rather have have full control of it.

Dale I flushed a new DA once and got nothing out of it so I find it is a waste of time and I trust 3W as well. I do add a bit of oil to them when I receive them though and make sure it is shaken but not stirred.
