The governor spring is a critical component in the engine speed control system, connecting the governor arm to the throttle linkage to regulate engine RPM under varying load conditions. When this spring fatigues, stretches, or breaks, the engine may surge, hunt, or fail to hold a steady speed. This part is a direct OEM-replacement component sourced from Kohler and is typically serviced by small engine technicians or equipment mechanics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis governor spring is used in small gasoline engines found in lawn and garden equipment such as riding mowers, zero-turn mowers, lawn tractors, and similar power equipment. It is part of the mechanical governor assembly that maintains consistent engine speed during operation. Technicians replacing a worn or damaged governor spring as part of a governor adjustment procedure or engine surging diagnosis will find this part appropriate for that application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOEM Kohler replacement governor spring for accurate fitment and function\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintains proper tension between governor arm and throttle linkage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestores stable engine RPM control and eliminates speed hunting or surging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect replacement designed to meet original factory specifications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement governor spring for Kohler small engines used in lawn and garden power equipment. Consult the Kohler parts lookup tool or equipment service manual to confirm fitment for a specific engine model and serial number before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eGovernor spring replacement is typically performed by a small engine technician or qualified equipment mechanic. Before servicing, shut off the engine, disconnect the spark plug wire, and allow all moving parts to come to a complete stop. After installing the new spring, a governor arm adjustment procedure is generally required to restore proper speed regulation — refer to the applicable Kohler engine service manual for the correct adjustment sequence. Incorrect governor spring installation or improper adjustment can result in engine overspeed, which may cause equipment damage or personal injury.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Governor Spring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Small Engine Speed Control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: KOHLER\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1708964-s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KOHLER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51200634814770,"sku":"1708964-S","price":16.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kohler-1708964-s-governor-spring-replacement","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
