Starting the Champ 2000i
30 degrees in the barn, Champ was setting on a cement floor. When i shut it down I turned the gas off and let it die, then turned the switches off. So I pulled the choke out and yanked on the rope...

I run any motor, boat, generator, lawn mower, whatever, completely out of fuel. Once it dies, I will choke the motor, and pull the starter a few more times to suck or run the last of the fuel out of the carb fuel bowl, main jet, pilot jets and all idle jet circuits. Have to get all residual fuel out before storage for more that a couple of weeks to a month.
It take s a minute or two for gravity to refill the fuel bowl in the carb and shut off the fuel float valve with gasoline. Turn the petcock on , wait a few, choke it, pull the motor slowly through a couple of pulls, then the 3rd or 4th pull, not yank, should fire it right up with the choke on.
Or you could read the Owners Manual.
