Hi all 93 Yamm V4. The choke solenoid is misbehaving. Used to work fine every time. I have sprayed it with Inox and it seems to glide nicely both using the manual choke lever on the engine, and when it decides to play ball using the button on the forward controls. It only works occasionally now from up front. It seems to be properly positioned. I am wondering whether there are any tricks to getting it going again, or is it a case of use the manual one or buy another choke solenoid unit.

Cheers and thanks

Not sure but those solonoids are electro magnet i would be checking the wiring connections you could try connecting 12volt power to the solonoid to make sure its working properly there is not much to go wrong with them it sounds like its not getting power

Turned out to be out of adjustment - should have known it wasnt a failed part on a Yammy :)

Good to see it was something simple
