Good afternoon.

I have an issue with a craftsman mower that I just picked up

The choke mechanism is like an electric choke. The small hole in the black plastic piece is broken and Iam unable to connect the choke linkage ….. I looked on parts tree and found the yellow electric / solonoid part. However I can not find the little arm. I have included photos. Any help will be super appreciated

Thank you for taking the time to look into this. Unfortunately, the end is supposed to be closed for the linkage to connect to it and hold. Here is a photo of the exact set up / not broken Almost Identical to what you found minus the open end

And tnx for making me look up the actual part images.

IL the problem with the IPL is that they are only showing the Ruixing carb setup.

My experience from having to repair one earlier. Mice got the one here. This is where I loaded the images to my system here along the PN for both the solenoid and screw.

The weird thing is I think you have to use the Ruixing 594862 choke shaft kit.

I noticed that when I tried the model provided by the OP. So I crossed the choke solenoid to another model number to find the plastic choke lever.

Good evening!!!! Thank you soo much. That is the little plastic arm I was looking for!

I hope your having a great weekend!

Sometimes even the techs can look at a diagram to the point they get crosseyed, and still can't find the part. I have had times were I have had to call the OEM and say I am looking for such and such part, what diagram is it on.

Or in your case the model number that you provided has the solenoid, but seems to be missing the carb diagram that uses that part.
