4244 182 9502 STIHL Choke Knob – Genuine OEM Carburetor Control Part
The STIHL Choke Knob (4244 182 9502) is a genuine OEM carburetor control component designed for select STIHL backpack blowers and mistblowers. This choke knob is used to engage and operate the choke system on compatible carburetors, supporting reliable cold starting and proper fuel enrichment during engine startup.
Choke knobs are frequently used control parts and may wear, crack, loosen, or become damaged over time due to vibration, repeated operation, heat exposure, or general aging. A broken or missing choke knob can make cold starting difficult, prevent proper choke engagement, or reduce safe control of the carburetor system.
Replacing the choke knob with the correct genuine STIHL OEM part restores proper choke function, reliable starting performance, and factory control operation without replacing the complete carburetor assembly.
Manufactured to STIHL factory specifications, this OEM choke knob ensures precise fitment, smooth engagement, and long-term durability under demanding commercial conditions.
