Description
Overview:
This Choke Rod is a Genuine Stihl part for the TS410 and TS420 cut-off saws. It is a formed metal linkage that connects the choke mechanism to the control system on the carburettor. During cold starts, it sets the correct choke position to enrich the air-fuel mixture, helping the engine start cleanly and stabilise as it warms up. As an OEM component (part number 4238 185 1500), it is built to the correct specification for reliable operation and a proper fit. It is a straightforward replacement for worn or bent linkages and helps restore consistent starting behaviour on professional saws commonly used in construction, roadworks, and landscaping.
