Yes, and they work very well in warm weather, but when it gets a little cooler, I"ve found that a dab on the gas along with the choke helps it start quickly. When it gets even cooler, you go up from one dab to two or more, with the "shzt I flooded it" coming between two and "one more than enough". When it is warm out, you can also start it by just giving it a couple of squirts, but using the choke has the advantage of handling the fast idle you want to warm it up properly, without having to sit there playing with the pedal.
