The Multiquip 2204160103 Flyweight is a genuine OEM component designed for MVH-150GH and MVH-150D reversible plate compactors. Sourced directly from Multiquip, this part matches the original specification and drops into place without any modification to the governor or engine assembly. It is the correct replacement for MVH-150 series machines requiring flyweight service, giving you confidence that the fit and function are exactly what the machine was built around.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Mass Tolerance — Manufactured to the exact weight and geometry specification the MVH-150 governor system depends on for accurate RPM sensing and engine response.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to mate with the original governor carrier assembly on MVH-150GH and MVH-150D models, matching all mounting dimensions and pivot points.
- Confirmed MVH-150 Series Fitment — Verified for use on MVH-150GH and MVH-150D reversible plate compactors; always cross-reference your model code before ordering.
- Restores Proper Engine Governing — A worn or damaged flyweight causes erratic RPM, poor compaction output, and engine hunting; replacing it brings governor response back to spec.
- Long-Term Durability Under High-Cycle Operation — OEM-grade material construction stands up to the continuous centrifugal loading experienced in plate compactor governor systems during sustained operation.
The flyweight is a small but critical component inside the centrifugal governor mechanism of the engine. As engine speed increases, the flyweight pivots outward under centrifugal force, mechanically signaling the governor to reduce fuel delivery and regulate RPM. When a flyweight is worn, cracked, or has lost mass, the governor loses its ability to accurately read engine speed — resulting in hunting, over-revving, or sluggish throttle response. Replacing a failed flyweight with a genuine OEM part like the Multiquip 2204160103 restores precise speed control and protects the engine from the wear caused by uncontrolled RPM swings.
