Description
Overview:
This Rod Governor is a genuine Honda part designed to regulate engine speed on small petrol engines used in garden and construction equipment. It is a formed metal linkage that connects the governor mechanism to the throttle, allowing precise adjustment of engine RPM under varying loads. Built for accurate movement and long service life, it helps prevent overspeeding and hunting, keeping the engine running smoothly and efficiently. Engineered specifically for Honda engines including GCV145 and GCV145H, it also suits several related GCV and mower models. As a direct replacement for OEM No. 16555-Z9L-000 (also written 16555 Z9L 000), it restores correct governor function on lawn mowers, tillers, and compact machinery where dependable speed control is critical.
