Briggs Stratton 691807 Governed Idle Spring

Product Description

The BRIGGS STRATTON 691807 is a governed idle spring used in small engine governor assemblies. This spring maintains proper carburetor throttle tension at idle, allowing the governor system to regulate engine speed under varying load conditions. It is a direct OEM replacement component installed by small engine technicians, outdoor power equipment mechanics, and experienced DIYers performing carburetor or governor linkage service on Briggs and Stratton powered equipment.

The 691807 governed idle spring is suited for Briggs and Stratton small engines commonly found in walk-behind lawn mowers, riding mowers, and other outdoor power equipment. It is typically replaced during governor linkage repairs, carburetor rebuilds, or when the engine exhibits hunting, surging, or erratic idle speed caused by a worn or broken idle spring.
