With regard to the automatic choke setting, I'd suggest disregarding the index marks which may no longer be reliable and simply adjusting it so that, with a warm engine at idle, the choke valve is fully open with slight tension holding it in that position.
All good advice! When doing the choke adjustment initially before first run or after a fresh engine or carburetor rebuild, I typically start out doing the opposite by setting it to just lightly closed when cold. Then, once running and warm, I do the above. In any event, the marks on it are pretty much useless so I've never paid any attention to them.
