Description
Overview:
This governor spring is a direct-fit replacement for Honda small petrol engines, identified by part number 16561-883-010. It is a durable metal spring that links to the governor mechanism to control throttle position and stabilise engine speed under varying load. By keeping the engine from over-revving and maintaining steady RPM, it helps protect internal components and supports smoother running. Suitable for Honda G150 and G200 engines commonly found on compact construction and garden machinery, it is a practical service item for restoring correct governor action and reliable performance. Built for consistent tension and repeatable response, it is well suited to routine maintenance or repair when the original spring has stretched, corroded, or lost effectiveness.
