Quote:Weber 32/36 is very easy to start when correctly adjusted. Hard starting is usually caused by one of two things:
* Carburetor fuel bowl running dry overnight
or
* Choke not adjusted
The Weber rarely has the first problem.

To adjust the choke is easy, but many mechanics don't know how to do it.
1. When cold in the morning, loosen the choke nut, and rotate choke so it just fully closes
2. Tighten the nuts and go on your way
Many mechanics instead try to align the assembly marks or guess at the adjustment.

Next time your car has sat overnight, before you start it, pump the pedal once then remove the air filter and look. For easy starting it should be 100% closed like this:


If the choke butterflys are open even a little bit that's the problem, and vigorous pumping will be needed to start. On hot mornings it will be easier to start, on cool morning harder. But properly adjusted it will start easy on cold or hot days with foot off the pedal.
