The Edco 15190 is a replacement manual choke kit for Edco grinders powered by the 11 horsepower vertical shaft Honda engine (GXV340). If the choke lever on your 10-inch turbo grinder is broken, missing or worn out, this kit puts the complete choke control back together in one order instead of hunting for individual screws and washers.

How the choke works
According to Edco, the choke sits on the Honda engine of the 10-inch turbo grinder and reduces the amount of air in the engine's fuel-air mixture. A richer mixture helps a cold engine catch and idle, so a stiff, broken or missing choke control usually shows up as hard cold starts.
