Multiquip 16562ZE0020 Throttle Return Spring

The Multiquip 16562ZE0020 Throttle Return Spring is a genuine OEM component designed for a wide range of Multiquip and Multiquip portfolio equipment, including plate compactors such as the MVC64VH, MVC64VHW, MVC-64H, MVC-64HW, MVH-R60H, MVH-R60W, and MVB85H; concrete and mortar mixers including the MC-42S, MC44S, WC-42S, CMS-44S, CMS-4S, and EC-42S; diaphragm and centrifugal pumps such as the MQ-D206H, MQD2H, MQD2D3H, MQ-D305, MQ-D306HA, SDP-2, SDP-3, QP2H, and QP-204H; and walk-behind power trowels including the CA4HM, CA4HC, CA4.4HM, and CA-4-4H. As a genuine OEM part, the part is produced to the same specification as the original component, ensuring a consistent, correct fit across all compatible models without guesswork. Sourced directly through DHS Equipment, this throttle return spring is a straightforward service item that keeps your equipment running as intended.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM Spring Tension Spec — Manufactured to the exact tension rating of the original throttle return spring, ensuring proper throttle snap-back response across all compatible engines.
• Direct Drop-In Installation — Matches the original mounting points and hook geometry for a straightforward swap with no modification to the throttle linkage or carburetor assembly.
• Broad Equipment Compatibility — Fits plate compactors (MVC64VH, MVH-R60H, MVB85H), concrete mixers (MC-42S, WC-42S, CMS-44S), pumps (MQ-D206H, QP2H, SDP-2), and walk-behind trowels (CA4HM, CA4HC) across the Multiquip lineup.
• Consistent Throttle Control — A correctly tensioned return spring keeps the throttle closing fully and predictably, supporting stable engine speed and smooth operator control during continuous use.
• Engine Safety Compliance — A failed or weakened throttle return spring can prevent the engine from returning to idle or shutting down correctly; replacing it promptly is a basic engine safety measure on any throttle-governed equipment.

The throttle return spring is a small but critical part of the engine's throttle linkage system. Its job is to pull the throttle lever or slide back to the idle or closed position whenever the operator releases the throttle control. Without adequate spring tension, the throttle may stick open or fail to return fully, causing the engine to over-rev, respond erratically, or not shut down as expected. Over time, springs fatigue, lose tension, or break entirely due to heat cycling and repetitive movement — making this a common wear item during routine carburetor or throttle linkage service.
