Where in the world are you located? Never saw a auto choke. I might have one from an old tractor but it will need to be rebuilt. Pictures of the engine would be helpful.

Set throttle you say? Do you mean automatic throttle or choke?

No auto chokes exist for these engines, but if throttle control is what you want,
you just need a throttle control plate from a engine with throttle control, or delete the governer
and run your own linkage.

Great engine right there, i put a carb from a 900 series briggs & stratton, takes a little finagling, but i think you have to swap the exhaust too, i put the exhaust from the briggs on mine too, i had to remove the heat guard so it would fit in my frame, not sure what you will have to do. but any carb for a 10 hp/the cc will do, make sure you get the correct bolt pattern tho, if you dont you will be dissapointed, carbs are made to be level so it cant have tilt to it or it will either flood or have no fuel in the engine, for the 900 series carb i had to bring the idle screw down a little to start it, but once its running it runs fine, just doesnt like starting on a high idle

no that is not auto choke, the choke lever is on top of the carb and the throttle lever is too, if i was you i would buy https://www.walmart.com/ip/Carburet...es-Snowblower-Mower-5000w-Generator/970861008 instead, only because i have that one and its done me very well, the choke is a nice setup, just a few clicks back and forth for choke on and off, easy to setup, reliable and has good reviews just a few more $$$ you get one that will do you well and work well

keep the choke on a a little while driving see if it fixes anything, but i bet you carb is dirty or you just need a whole new one
