12 Pack 17211-ZL8-023 Air Filter Replacement for Honda GCV160 GC160 GCV190 GC190 Engine Lawn Mower Air Cleaner

What It Is

This 12-pack of 17211-ZL8-023 air filter replacements is designed for Honda GCV160, GC160, GCV190, and GC190 engines, commonly found on walk-behind lawn mowers, pressure washers, and small generators. Each filter traps dirt and debris before they enter the carburetor, protecting engine performance and longevity.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify your engine model (stamped on the valve cover or blower housing). This filter fits only Honda GCV160, GC160, GCV190, and GC190 engines—not GXV or other series. It replaces OEM part numbers 17211-ZL8-023 and 17211-ZL8-003. Measure your existing filter: OEM dimensions are roughly 3.5” x 2.5” x 0.75”. Aftermarket versions may vary slightly but should match these specs. Check your mower’s model number (e.g., HRR216) for cross-reference, but the engine model is the key compatibility factor.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: These are genuine Honda OEM filters, not aftermarket. Expect consistent fit and filtration performance.
• Installation: Tool-free—just remove the air cleaner cover, swap the filter, and re-secure the cover. Takes under a minute.
• Replacement interval: Change every 25 hours of operation or annually, more often in dusty/dry conditions. A dirty filter reduces power and increases fuel consumption.
• Common gotcha: Do not oil this filter (it’s dry foam). Oiling can clog the carburetor and cause hard starting.

Should You Buy It

If you own one or multiple Honda GCV160/190 or GC160/190 engines and want a year’s supply of OEM-quality filters at a fair price, this 12-pack is a solid investment. It’s ideal for fleet maintenance or sharing with neighbors. For a single mower used seasonally, a 2-pack may be more practical, but the per-filter cost here is hard to beat.
