Re: [BlindHandyMan] lubricating chokes

2006-09-30 Thread Lee A. Stone

Geof, this choke I am referring to on the newer generator is first, in a 
weird location. One has to reach behind and to the left of the generator  
and instead of this being an external operation, the choke is like a 
very small rounded pipe with a loop on the end in which to stick a 
finger or thum . this loop allows the operator to push in or pull out 
the choke..Maybe it was designed  to be a stiffer operation of moving 
this choke , but being a bit parynoid  and knowing the chocke seems to 
be a lightweight  metal I want to lube it so it can slide and out  a lot 
easier.. my previous generator just had an external lever which  you 
moved left or right and it was right in the front. the way this works is 
, when cold you reach back behind the left end of the generator and pull 
out the choke, while with the right hand turning the key to start. once 
it begins running then slowly slide the choke back in. a really nice set 
up.Lee

Re: [BlindHandyMan] lubricating chokes

2006-09-30 Thread Carla Jo
Okay, the first time my jaws read the subject line to this thread, I thought 
it said, lubricating jokes.  not chokes. I thought y'all had lost your 
minds, glad to realize it is a legitimate thread.

Well Carla Jo,

I thought of Vaseline on the thumbs as they encircle the throat.
