16100-Z0Y-813 Carburetor for Honda GCV190 GCV190A GCV190LA HRB217 HRX217 HRX217K1 HRX217K2 Lawn Mower, Carburetor + Gasket Kit + Fuel Filter + Spark Plug + Fuel Line + Fuel Pump + Air Filter

What It Is

This is an aftermarket carburetor replacement kit for Honda GCV190-series engines, commonly found on HRB217 and HRX217 mowers. It includes the carburetor plus a gasket kit, fuel filter, spark plug, fuel line, fuel pump, and air filter—everything needed for a full fuel-system refresh.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Engines: Honda GCV190, GCV190A, GCV190LA (check your engine model number stamped on the valve cover or blower housing).
• Mowers: HRB217, HRX217, HRX217K1, HRX217K2 (deck size doesn’t matter; engine model is the key).
• OEM vs Aftermarket: This is a non-Honda part. Fitment matches OEM Honda 16100-Z0Y-813, but tolerances may vary slightly.
• What to check before buying: Confirm your engine’s model number (e.g., GCV190A) and that you have the correct gasket orientation (some kits include multiple gaskets). Also verify the spark plug gap (0.028–0.031 in) before installation.

Key Things to Know

• Quality concerns: Aftermarket carburetors often work fine but may need minor adjustments (idle speed, float height) out of the box. Some users report slightly different performance vs OEM.
• Installation difficulty: Moderate. You’ll need basic tools (screwdrivers, socket set) and about 30–60 minutes. Watch a video for your specific mower—fuel line routing and governor linkage can be tricky.
• Common gotcha: The included fuel line may be slightly stiff; soak in hot water to soften before fitting. Also, the spark plug is a generic replacement—check gap before use.
• Kit completeness: You get a full fuel system overhaul in one box, which is great for preventive maintenance or fixing a hard-starting/rough-running mower.

Should You Buy It

If your Honda GCV190-powered mower is running poorly due to old fuel, clogged carb, or a failing fuel pump, this kit is a solid value for the price. It’s perfect for DIYers who want to replace everything at once rather than chasing individual issues. Not for those who insist on genuine Honda parts—but for $17, it’s hard to beat as a complete refresh.
