AUTO BYSTARTER
I posted earlier about a long crank hard start after sitting a few days, My guess is the auto-bystarter but the manual is not clear about what it does, Is it the choke system for the carb? Does it have to be replaced or is there a fix for it? The service manual is quite vague in its description of what the bystarter actually does.

It blocks a fuel pickup tube. As the air flows past a divertor and around the needle low pressure picks up the fuel.
The needle settles down into a brass tube, this tube has 4 holes near the top.
The tube sits in a cavity in the fuel bowl. This cavity is feed by a very tiny orifice from the main bowl. This orifice is very small and easily blocked if the carb ever dries out, as I found it.
