The Honda 16562-883-010 Throttle Return Spring is a genuine OEM component designed for a wide range of Honda generators, tillers, horizontal shaft engines, snow blowers, and water pumps, including the E1500, EG1000, EG1400, EG1500, EG2200, EM1600, EM1800, EM2200, F400, F500, FR500, FR700, G150, G200, HS35, HS50, WA20, WA30, WB20, WB30, WT20, and WT30. As a genuine Honda part, it is manufactured to the same specification as the original, so it installs and operates exactly as intended. With this spring spanning such a broad range of equipment, confirm your machine's model and serial number against the fitment table before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Throttle Return Tension — manufactured by Honda to deliver the correct return force for consistent throttle snap-back and responsive speed recovery across all covered equipment.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — matches the original spring's dimensions and hook geometry so it seats in the throttle linkage without modification.
- Broad Equipment Coverage — a single OEM part number serves Honda generators, tillers, horizontal shaft engines, single-stage and two-stage snow blowers, and water pumps including the WT30, WB30, EG2200, FR700, and HS50, among others.
- Serial Number Verification Recommended — Honda supersedes parts at production breaks, so cross-check your machine's serial number against the fitment table to confirm this is the correct spring for your unit.
- Throttle Control Integrity — a fatigued or broken return spring leaves the throttle without proper return tension, causing erratic engine speed, sluggish governor response, and unreliable operation under load.
The throttle return spring keeps constant tension on the throttle linkage, pulling the throttle plate back toward the idle position whenever the operator releases the control. This spring works alongside the governor to maintain stable engine speed by ensuring the throttle responds immediately to changes in load or control input. When the spring weakens or breaks, the throttle can stick open or fail to return cleanly, resulting in runaway speed, poor load response, or difficulty shutting the equipment down.
