Choke Rod - 7104

The Edelbrock Choke Rod 7104 is a divorced-style choke control component engineered for Edelbrock Quadrajet carburetors, specifically designed for small-block Chevrolet engine applications. This steel choke rod features cadmium plating for corrosion resistance and is manufactured to OEM specifications to ensure precise cold-start enrichment function on Performer RPM Q-JET carburetor models.

Weighing just 0.03 lbs and measuring 5.55 inches in length, this choke rod operates within the divorced choke system architecture where the choke housing is thermostatic but mechanically isolated from the primary throttle linkage. The cadmium-plated steel construction resists oxidation and maintains smooth engagement with the choke valve lever through repeated thermal cycles. Proper choke rod function is critical for reliable engine starting in cold conditions, as it controls the enrichment ratio during the initial ignition sequence before the engine reaches operating temperature.

This OEM-compatible replacement is essential for builders and restorers working with Chevrolet small-block engine combinations equipped with Performer RPM carburetors. Whether rebuilding a classic or restoring original carburetor function on vintage performance platforms, the correct choke rod ensures consistent cold-start behavior and completes the divorced choke system. The single-unit quantity allows for direct replacement or spare stocking for service applications.

Edelbrock choke components are recognized in the carburetor aftermarket for maintaining precision manufacturing tolerances. This rod is sold individually and should be verified for fitment with your specific carburetor model and year application before installation.
