Additional information

This engine choke assembly installs at the carburetor and regulates how much air mixes with fuel during starting and warm-up. Part number 951-11192 helps enrich the fuel mixture when the engine is cold, making starts easier and supporting smoother initial operation.

When the choke assembly sticks, bends, or fails to move correctly, the engine may be hard to start, stall shortly after starting, or run rough until it warms up. You might also notice the choke not opening or closing fully when the control is adjusted.

Disconnect the spark plug wire before starting the repair to prevent accidental engine startup. Handle the choke linkage carefully during installation to avoid bending it, and make sure all connections move freely once installed.
