That is the engine turning over but not firing. Each "poof" is a revolution.

Mine never went past 3 "poofs" before it started......unless I forgot to set the choke.

Are you using the choke at start up.....and how many "poofs" before it fires up ??

I suspect that you don't really have a problem.......but your report is rather unique so it's hard to say for sure.
