Description
Overview:
The Governor Torsion Spring is a helical torsion spring designed for the Villiers C45 industrial engine. Made from robust spring steel, it provides the controlled torsional force needed by the governor mechanism to regulate engine speed under changing loads. By maintaining the correct tension on the governor arm, it helps deliver stable idle and a consistent governed top speed, supporting efficient and safe operation of plant and equipment. This is a Genuine Villiers part, identified as OEM No. 30901, and is suitable for service, repair, and restoration of C45-powered machinery. Supplied as unused old stock, it may show light tarnishing or storage marks, which do not affect performance once installed correctly. Ideal for trades, workshops, and owners maintaining Villiers C45 engines on industrial and horticultural equipment.
Key Features:
- Genuine Villiers part for assured compatibility and quality (OEM No. 30901)
- Direct replacement for the C45 governor spring; no modification required
- Durable spring steel construction for reliable torque and long service life
- Helps restore stable idle and governed maximum speed under varying loads
- Consistent tension to support smooth throttle response and fuel control
- Supplied as unused old stock; cosmetic tarnish may be present only
- Compact, lightweight component for easy storage in service kits
- Suitable for workshop or on-site repairs with standard hand tools
- Designed to withstand repeated cycling and resist fatigue in harsh conditions
- Supports efficient engine performance and protects against overspeed
Typical Applications:
Used in the governor assembly of Villiers C45 industrial engines found on site mixers, small generators, water pumps, compressors, and other compact plant. Suitable for routine servicing, fault rectification where engine speed "hunts" or drifts, and for restoring vintage machinery to correct operating behaviour. A practical spare for mobile engineers and workshop technicians.
