when startin{~ the engine. The choke valve is of a =semi=automatic<br />

s type, having a poppet valve incorporated in its design, which<br />

is controlled by a spring. The poppet valve opens automatically<br />

when the engine starts and admits air to avoid over-choking or<br />

flooding of the engine. The mixture required for starting is considerably<br />

richer than that needed to develop power at normal<br />

temperatures. As the engine fires and speed and suction are increased,<br />

the mixture ratio must be rapidly reduced. This change<br />

is accomplished through adjustment of the choke valve and the<br />

automatic opening of the poppet valve to admit more air when the<br />

engine fires.<br />
