Description
Overview:
This throttle spring is a small, high-tension component used to return the throttle to a controlled position and maintain stable engine speed on machinery powered by Robin engines. Made from tough spring steel, it is designed to resist fatigue from repeated movement and vibration. It supports smooth throttle action by pulling the linkage or carburettor lever back to idle, helping prevent surging and unwanted revs. Suitable for use across construction and garden equipment such as generators, pumps, plate compactors, and similar tools where Robin engines are fitted. Supplied as a direct replacement for worn, stretched, or missing springs, it helps restore dependable throttle response and engine control. Reference: RB510 60480 40.
Key Features:
- Durable spring steel construction for long service life under vibration and heat
- Reliable return force for steady idle and smooth acceleration control
- Direct replacement part to restore correct throttle behaviour on Robin engines
- Supports accurate throttle linkage and carburettor lever movement
- Helps reduce throttle flutter and hunting for more consistent running
- Straightforward fitment with basic hand tools, no modifications normally required
- Suitable for frequent stop-start use common on site and garden machinery
- Compact, lightweight design that seats neatly within existing throttle assemblies
Typical Applications:
Used during routine servicing or repairs on equipment with Robin engines when the throttle does not return properly, idle speed drifts, or the original spring is damaged, stretched, or lost. Common on generators, water pumps, plate compactors, concrete tools, and garden machinery such as mowers and tillers. Ideal for restoring safe throttle control after carburettor cleaning, cable replacement, or linkage adjustments.
Also known as:
Throttle return spring, Robin throttle spring, carburettor throttle spring, throttle control spring, accelerator return spring. These terms are often used interchangeably for the small tension spring that returns the throttle linkage to its rest position and stabilises engine speed on small petrol engines.
