Default Engine in John Deere Snow Thrower 522 Cannot Run without Choke

Most likely no points in this engine. Electronic ign.

Suppose the throttle is closed and the leak adds 10% to the air the
engine gets. That will make the mixture leaner. If you open the
throttle to let 10 times more air through the carburetor and the leak
stays the same, it will be adding only 1% to the air the engine gets,
so
it won't matter much.


OK, I understand what you mean. I just don't know how this is related
to my situation.
Thanks anyway.

Don't forget about the points. They can cause symptoms that one would
swear up and down were carburetor problems. Maybe your problem isn't in
the carburetor at all.
