Tanaka 6692596 Choke Valve Shim

Product Description

The TANAKA 6692596 is a choke valve shim designed as a precision fit component within the carburetor assembly of Tanaka power equipment. The shim maintains correct spacing and alignment at the choke valve to ensure proper fuel-air mixture control during cold starts and warm-up operation. This type of small-engine carburetor hardware is typically replaced during carburetor rebuilds or when wear or damage to the choke assembly affects engine starting performance. Installation is performed by small-engine repair technicians and experienced equipment service professionals.

This choke valve shim is suited for use in Tanaka power tools and outdoor power equipment that utilize compatible carburetor configurations. It is typically installed during scheduled carburetor servicing, cold-start troubleshooting, or full carburetor rebuild procedures. Technicians working on handheld equipment such as trimmers, blowers, and chain saws will encounter this class of shim when restoring correct choke valve function.
