The Multiquip 16166Z5K701 Main Nozzle GX270UT2SMXC is a genuine OEM carburetor main nozzle designed for MVH308GH and MVH208GH reversible plate compactors. As a direct Multiquip OEM part, 16166Z5K701 is manufactured to the exact specification of the original component, ensuring proper fuel delivery and consistent engine performance on the jobsite. This nozzle is the correct service replacement for GX270UT2SMXC-equipped MVH-series heavy-duty reversible plates, giving you confidence that the part will fit and function as intended straight out of the box.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Fuel Metering Accuracy — Manufactured to Honda GX270UT2SMXC carburetor specification, ensuring the main nozzle delivers the correct air-fuel mixture for stable engine operation under compaction load.
- Direct Carburetor Drop-In — Engineered to seat correctly in the GX270UT2SMXC carburetor bore, requiring no modification to the carb body or fuel circuit during installation.
- Confirmed Fitment for MVH-Series Reversible Plates — Verified for MVH308GH and MVH208GH heavy-duty reversible plate compactors, so you can order with confidence.
- Restores Full Engine Power Output — A worn or clogged main nozzle causes rough running, loss of power, and poor fuel economy; replacing it with this OEM nozzle brings fuel flow back to spec and restores full compaction performance.
- Fuel System Integrity — Using the correct OEM nozzle prevents lean-running conditions that can cause engine overheating or accelerated wear on internal engine components.
The main nozzle is a precision-calibrated jet inside the carburetor that meters the volume of fuel drawn into the engine at full throttle and mid-range operation. Its bore diameter is factory-set to deliver the correct fuel quantity for the engine's displacement and load demands — on a plate compactor, that means sustaining consistent plate frequency and centrifugal force across varying soil conditions. When the main nozzle becomes blocked with varnish deposits or wears out of spec, the engine runs lean, loses power, surges under load, or refuses to reach full operating speed, directly reducing compaction effectiveness.
