The Honda 16571-888-010 Control Lever is a genuine OEM replacement designed for the GV150 vertical shaft engine. As a direct Honda OEM part, it is manufactured to the same specification as the original, ensuring correct operation and a proper fit on the GV150. If you are restoring or servicing one of these engines, verifying the part number 16571-888-010 against your machine's serial number in the fitment table is the best way to confirm this is the right component for your unit.
Key Features
- Genuine Honda OEM — sourced directly from Honda, this Control Lever matches the original component in geometry and function, so there is no guesswork about fit or operation.
- Correct Throttle Control — a properly functioning control lever allows smooth, accurate engine speed adjustment; a worn or damaged lever can cause erratic throttle response or loss of governor control.
- GV150 Fitment — designed specifically for the GV150 vertical shaft engine; check your engine's serial number against the fitment table to confirm this part applies to your serial range.
The control lever is a mechanical linkage component in the engine's throttle and governor system. It translates operator input — or governor movement — into precise carburetor throttle plate positioning, which in turn regulates engine speed under varying loads. When the lever is bent, cracked, or worn at its pivot points, the engine may hunt, surge, or fail to hold a steady speed, making replacement essential to restoring consistent performance.
