Answer The name I've generally used when referring to the Choke, is 'Choke Stove', or simply 'Choke.' You may have to hunt around for that part, since Carburetors and related parts, have pretty much become an extinct species. You can try Rock Auto Parts http://www.rockauto.com/, or Kanter Auto Products http://www.kanter.com/. One of those places might have what you need.
