The Wacker Neuson Choke Rod Grommet is a genuine OEM component designed for GP, GPS, and GV series portable generators, including the GP3800A, GP5600A, GP6600A, GPS5600A, GPS6600A, GV3800A, GV5600A, GV6600A, GV5000A, and GV7000A. As a direct OEM part, the is manufactured to the same specification as the original, ensuring a correct, secure fit in the choke linkage assembly without the need for modification. This grommet serves a straightforward but critical sealing and isolation role within the carburetor choke system, making it a key part of proper cold-start and fuel control performance across the full GP and GV generator lineup.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Grade — Molded to Wacker Neuson's original compound specification, maintaining the correct flexibility and compression resistance needed to cushion and seal the choke rod under continuous vibration and heat cycling.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Seats into the same panel or housing bore as the original, with the choke rod passing through the grommet center exactly as designed — no drilling, trimming, or adapters required.
- Broad Generator Family Coverage — A single part number covers GP3800A, GP5600A, GP6600A, GPS5600A, GPS6600A, GV3800A, GV5600A, GV6600A, GV5000A, GV5003A, GV7000A, and GV7003A variants across EPA, CSA, CARB, CAN GFI, and 50Hz configurations.
- Protects Choke Rod Operation — A worn or cracked grommet allows the choke rod to rattle, bind, or misalign, leading to hard starting, inconsistent choke engagement, and potential damage to the choke linkage over time.
- Fuel System Integrity — The grommet isolates the choke rod from the panel edge, preventing metal-on-metal contact that could wear through the rod coating and introduce contaminants into the carburetor area.
The choke rod grommet is a small rubber or elastomeric bushing that fits around the choke control rod where it passes through the generator housing or control panel. Its job is to cushion the rod, prevent vibration-induced wear, and create a barrier that keeps moisture and debris away from the choke linkage. When this grommet deteriorates — cracking, collapsing, or pulling free — the choke rod can shift out of alignment, making the choke difficult to engage smoothly and increasing wear on surrounding components.
