Why does my Honda lawn mower choke when I engage the blades?
Honda advises users to mow their lawns with the throttle set on the highest setting. Using a lower setting may not provide enough power for the job, causing the mower to stall out when you engage the blades. Once you’ve started the engine, move the throttle lever to the highest setting and keep it there while you engage the blades and mow the lawn.
