Lawnboy 21 inch mower is 3 years old and has a carb with number 6241 26821 stamped on it. Bowl has numbers 42638 and 64202. Removed carb and cleaned. Throttle plate is free and moves very easily. Choke plate is harder to move. It is does not look to be bound by anything, just as if the plastic shaft is swollen or something.

Is the choke plate supposed to be that hard to move or should it be as free as the throttle plate?
