The Honda 17910-V08-000 Throttle Cable is a genuine OEM replacement designed for the FG400 and FG500 tillers. As a direct Honda OEM component, this cable is manufactured to the same specification as the original, ensuring the throttle operates exactly as intended. This part is the correct fit for FG400 and FG500 tillers — always verify your unit's serial number against the fitment table before ordering, as Honda updates part numbers at specific serial breaks.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Throttle Control — Honda-sourced cable engineered to deliver the correct cable tension, travel length, and end-fitting geometry needed for accurate throttle response on these tillers.
- Direct OEM Replacement — replaces the original cable with no adjustment to the throttle linkage or housing required, restoring full throttle range from idle to wide-open in one swap.
- Fits FG400 and FG500 Tillers — confirmed fitment for both Honda FG400 and FG500 tillers; check your serial number against the compatibility table to confirm the correct part for your production run.
- Restore Precise Engine Speed Control — a worn, frayed, or kinked throttle cable causes sluggish or erratic engine response and can prevent the tiller from reaching full working speed; this replacement brings clean, consistent control back.
The throttle cable is the mechanical link between the operator's hand control and the engine's throttle valve. When the operator moves the throttle lever, the cable transmits that motion directly to open or close the carburetor's throttle plate, controlling engine speed and the power delivered to the tilling tines. Over time, cable strands fray, the inner wire stretches, or the outer housing kinks — any of these conditions causes a loss of throttle feel, a stuck or sluggish response, or an inability to hold a steady engine speed. Replacing a worn cable restores crisp, linear throttle control and allows the FG400 or FG500 tiller to perform as designed across the full range of operating conditions.
