Description
Overview:
The Governor Arm Shaft to fit Honda GX160 and GX200 engines is a small, precision metal component that links the governor mechanism to the throttle, helping the engine hold a steady speed under changing loads. Made from durable steel, it is designed for reliable service in compact petrol engines commonly used across construction and garden machinery. By translating governor movement into accurate throttle control, it helps prevent over‐revving and reduces hunting or surging. This direct‐fit replacement suits popular Honda engine families, including GX160 and GX200 variants used on equipment such as compactors, pumps, generators, pressure washers, and tillers. It is a practical fix when the original shaft is worn, bent, or corroded, restoring stable idling and consistent working RPM.
Key Features:
- Helps maintain constant engine speed under load for smoother operation
- Steel construction for good wear resistance and service life
- Direct-fit geometry for Honda GX160/GX200 series; no modifications required
- Supports stable idle and throttle response, reducing hunting and surging
- Suitable for frequent use in trade, hire, and DIY environments
- Compatible with standard linkages and governor components on listed engines
- Straightforward to install with normal workshop tools
- Cost-effective replacement to refresh a tired governor system
Typical Applications:
Used on petrol-powered construction and landscaping machines driven by Honda GX-series engines, including plate compactors, generators, water pumps (e.g. site and garden irrigation), pressure washers, concrete equipment, lawn care equipment, and rotary tillers. Ideal where precise, reliable RPM control is needed for safe and efficient operation through changing load conditions.
