Description
Overview:
This Genuine Villiers Governor Spring is a vintage spare for the Villiers F15 engine. Made from durable spring steel, it connects the governor mechanism to the throttle linkage to regulate engine speed and keep operation stable under changing loads. As unused old stock, it follows the original Villiers specification for fit and function, making it well suited to accurate restorations as well as routine maintenance. The spring helps prevent surging and over‐speeding by applying the correct tension within the governor system. It is a straightforward replacement for tired or stretched springs on F15 stationary engines commonly used in small plant and garden machinery. Suitable for both professional mechanics and DIY users looking to restore reliable, consistent running on Villiers F15 engines.
