Why would an 86 Century wagon v6 carburetor have a hard time starting when it is cold and why do you have to step on gas pedal to make the choke close?

There are "steps" on the choke cam that pull the gas pedal up to a high speed idle when the choke is on. If you don't step on the gas pedal once before starting, the carburator/choke assembly cannot function properly.

My Honda Shadow 600 VLX doesn't keep an idle. I have to keep the choke pulled for starting and running the engine. Can't drive as any throttle kills it. New battery. What to do?
You need to take you car to a mechanic. It is obvious you do not know what you are doing. Your battery is in the electrical system. Your choke is in the fuel system. They are separate. It is normal to pull out your choke to start your engine. It is not normal to have your choke out to run your engine. As soon as your engine starts, you should push your choke in. When you pull out your choke, you close the air going into your carb. Then you push in the choke to allow air to flow through your carb. That lets you speed up or slow down. If it won't run with the choke pushed in, try pushing the choke in slower.
