    Thanks.. Do you know what (generally-less volume?) would be different and why between the 2 and 4 strokes? (just curious)

      Sorry, I don't have a clue as to why the differences. Other than a two stroke has the ability to create pressure pulses to help move gasoline whereas a four stroke has to depend on a pressure differential created in the carburetor.

        Thanks to everyone.
        the thermal part is what shuts off the fuel flow after the motor warms up.
        So I do not see how that could be the problem with motor not starting when cold.
        problem with the thermal heater would be a problem with it running too rich after warm up

            the carbs for a two or 4 stroke work identically.

            it uses a colum of air that at se*****l is about 14 miles high.

            pulse pumps work on both two and fourstroke engines.

            they have been around for years.

            most large 4 stroke motors use another carb circuit called an accelerator circuit that most two strokes do not need.

              I believe this was referring more to the prime start enrichment system than the way the carb itself worked

                Where does a four stroke carburetor get the air pressure pulses from to activate a pump?

                  Yes it was.

                  Is the prime start any different (basic operation) between the 2 and 4 stroke?

                  I would think just the volumne of air going thru ANY carb(cranking), (2 or 4 stroke), with the prime start "activated" would allow extra fuel to be sucked in

                  Just an educated guess...

                    I am not sure if the 4 stroke prime start enrichment system uses a diaphragm pump like the 2 stroke, mainly because I never looked at a 4 stroke one

                      the 4 stroke prime start does not need the fuel enrichment pump.
                      it uses about 1/2 the fuel a two stroke does for each revolution.
                      but the principle is identical.
