17210-Z1V-003 Air Filter for Honda GXV160 Engine Lawn Mower Replace 17210-ZE7-013 17210-ZE7-003 17210-ZE7-505 Napa 7-02708 with Spark Plug

What It Is

This is a genuine Honda air filter (part 17210-Z1V-003) designed specifically for the GXV160 engine, commonly found on Honda HRX217, HRR216, and other self-propelled lawn mowers. It also includes a compatible spark plug, making it a two-part maintenance kit for engine care.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your engine is a Honda GXV160 (check the engine shroud for a model tag). This filter replaces OEM parts 17210-ZE7-013, 17210-ZE7-003, and 17210-ZE7-505, as well as Napa 7-02708. It fits most Honda mowers with deck sizes from 21” to 22”, but measure your current filter: the Honda original is approximately 5.5” x 3.5” x 1.5”. Avoid aftermarket “universal” filters—this genuine part ensures exact fit and sealing.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Genuine Honda foam-and-paper construction, not a cheap aftermarket clone. The spark plug is a standard NGK or Honda spec, but verify your mower’s gap requirement (typically 0.028-0.031 inches).
• Installation: Easy—remove the air filter cover (usually two clips or a wing nut), swap the filter, and reinstall. The spark plug requires a 13/16” or 5/8” socket; no special tools needed.
• Common gotcha: If your mower has a pre-filter (foam wrap), this kit may not include it. Check your current setup before ordering.
• Longevity: Replace every 100 hours or annually for best engine life. A dirty filter can cause hard starting and reduced power.

Should You Buy It

If you own a Honda mower with a GXV160 engine and want a hassle-free, OEM-quality replacement that includes a spark plug, this is a solid value. It’s ideal for DIY homeowners who prefer genuine parts over aftermarket uncertainty. Skip it if you need only the filter or have a different engine model.
