Description
Overview:
This Choke Rod is a Genuine Stihl part for professional and high-performance chainsaws, designed to restore precise choke control during starting. It links the control lever to the carburettor's choke mechanism, helping set the correct air-fuel mix for reliable cold and warm starts and stable idle.
