--- Quote from: Gio_84 on March 12, 2022, 01:35:02 PM ---I already have followed the choke setting procedure. when engaged, with engine cold, the flap is firmly in place and completely closed.
the play is due to the holes that are larger than the rod. is this because of the wear?
was like this also when it was new?
Thanks

Your video shows you´ll have to bend the rod some to keep the chokeblade fully closed when choke is fully engaged.

FWIW

as you can see here, when engaged the flap is blocked.

the play come when the flap is open.

What's it look like when hot?

quadrajam:
Push that counterweight/lever down and hold it. Don't let up.
That will simulate the bimetallic coil opening force when
totally warmed up Then there will still be a little bit of choke
flap looseness.The choke flap doesn't hard open it will always
rattle just a bit.

Kenth:
QUADRAJAM is correct, not a problem, it is part of the design.
