After I've driven it for about 15 or 20 minutes and i turn off the ignition it coughs and sputters and runs for a second or two. I recently changed my automatic choke which the index was way over to the 2 o'clock position. It would take almost a minute of cranking to start and realized it was set for too lean a mixture. I think that happened when the rebuilt carb was installed. Anyway, i moved the index to the 12 o'clock position and now it starts right up after only about 4 or 5 seconds of cranking. Since its never done this before and thats the only change i made i wonder if you have any thoughts what might be causing this?
