Description
Overview:
This genuine Honda throttle return spring is designed for precise fit and dependable performance on GX160T2 and GX160UT2 petrol engines. Made from formed spring steel, it provides consistent tension to pull the throttle linkage back to idle, helping maintain safe and predictable engine control. As an OEM component (Honda 16562-Z4M-000), it matches the original specification for geometry and rate, so it works correctly with the governor and carburettor linkage found on compact construction and garden machinery. Suitable for equipment powered by the Honda GX160 series, this spring is a direct replacement that helps restore smooth operation where throttle response has become weak, sticky, or inconsistent due to wear of the original part. Genuine Honda build quality supports long service life in daily use.
