The Multiquip 16562ZE2700 Throttle Return Spring is a genuine OEM component designed for GA3.6HA, GA3.6HR, GA3.6HZ gasoline-powered generators and the MVH408GH reversible plate compactor. Sourced directly from Multiquip, this spring matches the original specification and installs as a direct replacement with no adaptation. Confirm your model code before ordering to ensure compatibility with your specific unit.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Spring Tension: — Engineered to the exact tension rating of the original, ensuring the throttle lever snaps back consistently and holds the correct idle position under load.
- Direct-Fit Installation: — Hooks into the same anchor points as the factory spring, making replacement straightforward without reworking the throttle linkage assembly.
- Broad Fitment Across Two Equipment Families: — Confirmed for GA3.6HA, GA3.6HR, and GA3.6HZ generators as well as the MVH408GH reversible plate compactor.
- Throttle Control Integrity: — A worn or broken throttle return spring causes the engine to stick at high RPM or fail to return to idle, creating inconsistent power output and operator hazard.
- Fuel System Safety: — Proper throttle return function is critical for safe engine shutdown and prevents uncontrolled engine speed, making this a safety-relevant component on any powered 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 back to the idle or closed position whenever the operator releases the throttle control. Without a functioning spring, the engine cannot reliably return to idle, which can result in runaway RPM, difficulty shutting down the engine, and accelerated wear on engine components. Replacing a fatigued or broken spring restores predictable throttle response and keeps the engine operating safely within its intended speed range.
