  • / HRR2168VKA Carb, Choke, and Thermowax Replacement
I was wondering if anyone could give me some help or link my to an instructional. My HRR2168VKA won't start even a year after the recall "fix". I'm trying to replace the auto choke, carburetor, and thermowax on my own. I have the carburetor off but as I detached it every gasket came off with it and I'm unsure the order they all go in. Also, how does the autochoke get lined up? Lastly, where will I find the spot the thermowax is? I just replaced the blades and put a ew belt on and it took me all of 5 minutes to get the filter housing off, clean it, carb off, and autochoke. I'm sitting here looking at this thing knowing it's 5 minutes worth of putting everything back together I just don't know in what order all the gaskets go and how the autochoke is to be placed back on and where the thermowax element attaches. Thanks in advance!

I shot him a PM. He's going to get back to me.

All done. Mower works like a charm now. When inspecting the auto choke that I replaced it was still the same defective model as pointed out by the service bulletin Robert gave me. The defective model has a silver sealed spring while the improved model is black. So i guess the shop that did the recall work didn't even do anything. Oh well.
