What is a "choke"?
A choke is a part of a vehicle's carburetor that helps start the engine, especially in cold weather. It works by limiting the amount of air that enters the carburetor, which causes the engine to run with more fuel than usual. This makes it easier for the engine to start when it is cold. Once the engine warms up, the choke opens to allow more air in, helping the engine run properly. The choke is usually controlled by a lever or is automatic in modern vehicles.
a coil of wire with relatively low resistance and high inductance used in electrical circuits to allow direct current or low‑frequency currents to pass while impeding or attenuating higher‑frequency alternating currents and interference
