My RN - always start on choke, hot or cold, as soon as she starts, put the choke back in. When cold, start on full choke, pop it back in as soon as it fires and after a few seconds, the revs die down, catch the engine by pulling choke back out, revs go up and pop the choke back in. When very cold (-4C or more), you may have to coax the engine into life with pulling choke out/in 3 or 4 times.
If you leave the choke out all the time, the engine stalls. (On my RN).
