The Honda 16500-Z5K-830 Remote Control Assembly is a genuine OEM component designed for GX240 and GX270 horizontal shaft engines. As a direct OEM replacement, this assembly is sourced from Honda and built to the same specifications as the original unit, ensuring a correct fit the first time. Verify your engine's serial number against the fitment table before ordering, as Honda periodically supersedes parts at serial number breaks. This Remote Control Assembly is the right choice for operators restoring throttle and choke control function to their GX240 or GX270 engines.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Throttle and Choke Control — sourced directly from Honda, this assembly delivers the correct cable routing, lever geometry, and governor linkage engagement that keep fuel metering accurate and responsive across the engine's operating range.
- Direct OEM Replacement — engineered to swap in place of the original unit on GX240 and GX270 horizontal shaft engines with no rework to the surrounding components.
- Fits GX240 and GX270 Horizontal Shaft Engines — confirmed for both models; check your serial number against the fitment table to ensure this assembly applies to your specific production run.
- Restores Accurate Engine Speed Control — a worn or damaged remote control assembly causes erratic governor response, hunting at idle, or loss of throttle authority; replacing it brings consistent RPM control back to the engine.
The Remote Control Assembly is the operator-facing throttle and choke control unit mounted on the engine. It links the operator's lever inputs to the carburetor's choke and throttle valves and to the governor linkage, allowing the engine speed to be set and held under varying load conditions. When the assembly wears, corrodes, or breaks, the engine may surge, fail to hold a set speed, or become difficult to start — replacing it is essential to restoring predictable, controlled engine operation.
