I have just bought a new mower with a Honda auto choke. When cold the mower starts ok and as long as you stop and start the mower when in use it is ok providing you do so within a few minutes. If you leave the mower for say 5 minutes the mower will not start. I have looked at the choke plate at this time and found it fully closed. If I manually push the coke plate open it starts first time. I presume that the problem is caused by the choke plate closing too fast, so the engine is still warm and needs the coke plate open to start. The dealer has put a new wax cylinder on but this has made no difference. He said that the wax cylinder was fixed in by some sort of silicone but he has not replaced this. Can anyone please help to sort the problem out. Thankyou, John
