HONDA HRX 217 Mower Question!

[trekgod3]

Hi,
Well, I checked the throttle plate cold and it is completely closed.

I went to start it up and it started on the third pull so, I cleaned it up and I'm going to call it good for now...

As it's summer and HOT.

Might pull the carb this winter and clean it along with some other end of season maintance items.

I live in Florida, so use the mower year round, but more in summer, of course.

Thanks for the help and info, I now know more about HONDA Auto Choke, than I did!!!

Mine is similar. Takes 2 to 4 pulls to start if it's been sitting for a while. One pull if used weekly. Also south Florida. Only use ethanol free REC90 gas.
