Description
Overview:
This throttle return spring is a Genuine Honda part for GX100 and GX100U petrol engines. Made from durable steel, it provides the controlled tension needed to return the throttle linkage smoothly back to the idle position after acceleration. A sound return spring helps maintain a steady idle, clean throttle response, and safer engine behaviour when the control is released. It is a compact, factory-specified component designed to fit the original mounting points and operate reliably in the heat and vibration of small industrial engines. Suitable for routine maintenance or repairs on Honda GX100-series engines used across construction, landscaping, and garden machinery. Honda part number 16562-Z4E-S10 ensures correct fit and function without modification.
Key Features:
- Genuine Honda part for accurate fit and correct spring tension
- Steel construction for long service life under engine vibration
- Smooth, consistent throttle return to maintain stable idle
- Direct replacement for 16562-Z4E-S10; no adjustments typically required
- Designed specifically for Honda GX100 and GX100U engines
- Works with the original throttle linkage and carburettor components
- Compact, lightweight component that is easy to handle during fitting
- Helps reduce hunting and erratic idle caused by a weakened or damaged spring
- Suitable for preventative maintenance to restore factory throttle feel
- Compatible with typical workshop practices using basic hand tools
Typical Applications:
Used on Honda GX100-series engines driving compact construction tools and garden machinery, such as small plate compactors, rammer tampers, generators, water pumps, power trowels, and specialist cutters. Ideal when the throttle does not return reliably to idle, when idle speed is inconsistent, or after carburettor/linkage service where a fresh return spring is recommended.
Also known as:
Throttle spring, return spring, carburettor throttle return spring, throttle lever spring, idle return spring, throttle control spring. These terms refer to the same small coil spring that biases the throttle mechanism back towards idle on Honda small engines.
