As long as it starts and runs your ok.....only thing you would have done was foul your plug.

explain yourself better......when you pull it all the way do you mean all the way on? or off?
when you say not working as well do you mean your quad runs bad?....or wont keep running?
How cold is it where you are?

ok here it goes...

u kno how wen u turn ur choke on ur engine runs faster and faster and faster. well today it was bout 35 degrees and i turned on the choke to warm up my quad. i noticed that wen i turned the choke alllllllllll the way on the engine would not run as fast as if i had the choke half or 3/4 on. it would work good except for wen i pulled it on all the way.

thnx for the help.

Thats normal......you only need full choke to start......once mine is running I move the choke back to ½ so the fast idle will keep it running until its ready to go.

As outside temperatures move around, the place the choke offers an increase in idle speed will vary. On a warm day, if the choke is on full, the motor will be too rich, and choke and die.
In fact , thats one of the ways to check the chokes operation, to see if its working correctly.....warm day, warm motor, at idle,go full choke, the motor should die.
Just set the choke position where it offers the highest idle, or just start riding.
