I'm helping a co-worker with a newer Toro that has the air vane operated auto choke. It also has the bi-metal arm that's supposed to hold the choke off while starting the engine when it's already hot. This mower had a huge mouse nest under the flywheel housing and the owner removed it himself. Since then the engine surges bad as the air vane arm keeps moving the choke lever on and off.
I can't figure out how or if the bi-metal arm connects to the air vane. I'm thinking there was a second spring that got unknowingly removed with the mouse nest debris. Is there supposed to be another spring connecting the two parts? Do the two arms directly hook together? Or does the bi-metal arm just act as a limiter to the movement of the air vane arm?
Thanks in advance for all and any replies.
