Something went wrong when you changed oil.

So which is it? Does it start without choke? Or does it start only with starting fluid?

Might be flow-volume issue. Check that petcock gets adequate vacuum. No cracked hoses. Ends should be secured in place with clamps.

Test petcock flow collected into measuring cup for 30-sec. How much did it flow?
