Default hard start 110cc

well i have the falcon 110cc

ive rode it a few times.. and to get the thing to start its a pain but once it runs it runs perfect.. but if you let it stall it will drain the battery trying to start it.. then i drag it into the garage and put a battery charger on it and get it to fire up..

im in Michigan so its for sure cold.. maybe i just suck with choking it.. ether i flood it or dont seem to get enough fuel...

i doubt the choke is why i cant get it to fire up..this isnt my first time around a small engine..

any suggestions?? only thing i could think of is maybe a dirty carb?

or maybe the coil is going bad?? but once i clean the plug ill have good spark everytime.

thanks!

Could be most any of the things you listed. My guess is that it isnt in your carb considering it runs well when it warms up. I would say to try a valve adjustment. Valves should be set at .004. This should take care of it.
