The Multiquip 16100Z4MV22 is a genuine OEM GX160 Carburetor designed for MVC88VTH, MVC88VTHW, MVC82VH, and MVC82VHW plate compactors. As a factory-sourced component, it meets the exact fuel delivery specifications required by the Honda GX160 engine used across these MVC-series machines. This carburetor is a direct-fit replacement, ensuring straightforward installation without modification. If your plate compactor is running rough, surging, or refusing to start, replacing a worn or fouled carburetor with part number 16100Z4MV22 restores proper engine function and compaction output.
Key Features
- Factory-Matched Fuel Metering — Sourced directly from Multiquip as a genuine OEM part, this carburetor matches the precise jet sizing, float height, and air-fuel ratio calibration specified for the GX160 engine.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Engineered to bolt into the same mounting position and connect to the existing fuel and throttle linkage on MVC88VTH, MVC88VTHW, MVC82VH, and MVC82VHW compactors.
- MVC-Series Compatibility — Confirmed fitment across the MVC88VTH, MVC88VTHW, MVC82VH, and MVC82VHW plate compactor models, covering both standard and water-tank-equipped variants.
- Restored Engine Performance — A correctly functioning carburetor delivers consistent throttle response and steady RPM under load, keeping the plate compactor producing full compaction force on every pass.
- Fuel System Integrity — Genuine OEM construction ensures proper needle and seat seating, reducing the risk of fuel leaks that can present a fire hazard on a hot engine.
The carburetor is responsible for mixing air and fuel in the correct ratio before delivering the mixture to the engine's combustion chamber. On plate compactors like the MVC88VTH and MVC82VH series, a well-functioning carburetor is critical to maintaining consistent engine speed under the variable load demands of compaction work. When a carburetor wears out, becomes clogged with varnish deposits, or develops a stuck float, the engine may surge, run lean, stall under load, or fail to start entirely — all of which bring compaction work to a halt until the component is serviced or replaced.
