Product information & specifications
STIHL Choke Rod for MS 362 & MS 362 C Chainsaws
The STIHL Choke Rod (MPN 1140 185 1902) is a genuine STIHL replacement linkage designed to restore accurate choke control on compatible STIHL MS 362 and MS 362 C petrol chainsaws. Manufactured from durable formed metal, this choke rod connects the external choke control to the carburettor choke mechanism, helping regulate air intake during cold starts and restarts.
Correct choke operation is essential for achieving the right air-fuel mixture, supporting easier starting, cleaner running and a more stable idle. If the original rod is bent, worn or missing, replacing it with a genuine STIHL part helps restore positive, repeatable choke engagement and dependable chainsaw performance in demanding working conditions.
Key Features

- Original STIHL MPN: 1140 185 1902
- Designed for STIHL MS 362 and MS 362 C chainsaws
- Durable formed metal construction
- Restores accurate choke on/off positioning
- Supports reliable cold starts and restarts
- Helps maintain correct air-fuel mixture during starting
- Direct replacement using existing controls and clips
- Designed to resist vibration and regular use

Designed for Reliable Starting Performance
The STIHL Choke Rod is designed to provide accurate movement between the external control and carburettor choke mechanism, ensuring the choke engages and disengages as intended. Replacing a worn or bent rod can help restore consistent starting behaviour, improve control feel and reduce issues caused by poor choke alignment.
Durable OEM Construction for Workshop and Site Use
Built from formed metal to genuine STIHL specifications, this choke rod is designed to maintain its shape and performance under vibration, heat and repeated use. It is well suited to professional forestry and arborist use, as well as domestic servicing and routine workshop maintenance.
Compatibility and Application
This STIHL choke rod is suitable for selected STIHL petrol chainsaws and is commonly fitted during carburettor work, servicing or repair when the original choke linkage is bent, stretched, damaged or missing. Also known as a choke lever rod, choke actuator link, choke control linkage or choke operating rod, it is an important part of the chainsaw starting control system.
