Hi grumpy,
Mowed this morning and started her up as per the manual. No problems and started easily.
Personally I have always had a concern with running engines at high revs when they are cold and this particular engine has always started well at low throttle settings.
In saying that I am but an amateur in this field and will always accept the manufacturers opinion but more importantly the advice from experts such as yourself.
Thanks for your help in clearing up my concern.
Regards,
Craig.
