How do you get the choke cable out of the carb? I really don't feel like breaking it to find out lol.

Hi

You might get more answers in the trikesylvania forum or trying a search ..but for now, do NOT do anything strenuous.!

I think dc has mentioned drilling or some fancy lathe fix so it's nothing to fool with.

Soak it a few times a day for a few days in penetrant.

It is a small pencil eraser sized piston with a needle on the end.
Some of them have a square cut rubber ring that really gets them stuck.

The cable has a knob end and is held to that piston by 2 very delicate pieces of sheetmetal that will bend, break and then there is almost no way to grab it to get it out.

Get some better advice before you go too far.

and welcome to the best source of trike survival info.

Soak, soak, soak, and patience... They are about 50 bucks to replace if you trash them...
