fitted quadrant on Bing

I know some folks don't like Yahoo but I subscribe to both and a recent
post has made me go, Aaaah...now there's something I should have
noticed.
Check out the pictures posted by Roger, a UK Jabiru maintenance friend
of mine.
The 'quadrant' added by Jabiru to change the 'pull direction' on the
choke (starting carburettor) slide valve stops the full travel of the
valve from what it would have if it was limited by the travel of the
metal lever that the quadrant is bolted to. A long sentence and
grammatically very poor but it does say what I mean.
I have always subscribed to the 'not rich enough' concept of poor
starting rather than 'not fast enough' which can be the case but not
with my engine which whirrs like a dervish.
The choke position maybe a contributory factor in many cases. Haven't
tried it yet as the plane is always starting at the moment.
There is a post to go with it:
