The choke lever is worn on my JD 50, enough that the plates don't open completely. It's a tiny groove worn on the inside of the lever where it contacts the cross pin in the choke shaft, and I wonder if anyone has had success filling this groove with JB Weld or something similar? Or how about Bondo (which I'll have mixed up for another project anyhow)?
New levers are available, but it will cost at least $40 to get one in my hand and I'm a certified skinflint. Kinda stupid I guess - I've spent thousands on this tractor - what's another $40? Ha!
