I'm having problems with starting my motor. I squeeze the bulb and push in the electric primer but it will not start, but when I put my hand over intake of carb it will start. Does this motor have a manual choke??

not sure about the manual choke. check voltage at the electric choke. could be bad ignition switch not sending voltage to choke. Has engine sat up during winter? Enrichment valve may be fouled from fuel deposits.
