First thing to check is the choke pull off is still working and is getting vacum. If that is all OK there is a adjusting screw on the rear of the pull off, screw it out for more choke plate opening and infor less.
If you remove your air cleaner and have someone press the gas pedal and release it you should see the choke plate close completely. When the engine is started the choke pull off should imediatly open the plate about 1/4 inch (est).
Hope this helps
Kevin
