I haven't ran a choke for 25 plus years..normally a couple pumps to fire and hold at 2000 rpm or do a throttle tickle for 30/45 seconds..depends on temps..Over winter I'm putting a fast idle solenoid on just to bump idle and hold for warm up...

I always find it curious when people will post "the car fired right up cold and idled down to a smooth idle right away" with non-choke carbs..they are either full of it... or the carb is very rich at idle...
