Abstract
A carburetor situated on an intake manifold of an engine is shown having an induction passage with a choke valve therein mounted on a choke shaft which in turn has a choke control lever; a thermostatic control situated on a different portion of the intake manifold is operatively connected to the choke control lever as through a rod linkage; a selectively adjustable retainer carried by the choke lever operatively engages the rod linkage; the retainer is adjustable to accommodate variations in the effective distance as between the choke lever and the thermostatic control to be spanned by the rod linkage.
