17211-ZL8-023 Air Filter 17231-Z0L-050 Cleaner Cover for Honda GCV135 GCV160 GCV190 HRB216 HRB217 HRR216 HRS216 HRT216 HRX217 Motor Pressure Washer Push Lawn Mower

What It Is

This is an OEM Honda replacement air filter (17211-ZL8-023) and cleaner cover (17231-Z0L-050) set for small engines on push mowers, pressure washers, and generators. It filters dust and debris from intake air to protect the carburetor and cylinder.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Direct fit for engines: Honda GCV135, GCV160, GCV190, and models HRB216, HRB217, HRR216, HRS216, HRT216, HRX217. Also fits Honda pressure washers and generators using the same engine series.
• Check your model number: Verify your equipment’s engine model (stamped on the blower housing or valve cover). This set won’t fit GCV200 or larger engines without modification.
• OEM vs aftermarket: This is genuine Honda, not a generic replacement. OEM ensures exact fit and sealing—especially critical for the cover’s clip alignment.
• Measurements: Filter is roughly 3.5 x 2.5 x 1.5 inches. Cover is about 4 x 3 inches with two mounting tabs. If your current filter or cover is visibly warped or cracked, replace both together.

Key Things to Know

• Installation is 5 minutes: Remove the old cover (two tabs), swap the filter, and snap the new cover on. No tools required.
• Replace every 100 hours or yearly: More often if mowing in dusty or sandy conditions. A clogged filter reduces power and increases fuel consumption.
• Common gotcha: The cover’s tabs can break if forced. Align the cover squarely before pressing down. If it doesn’t snap easily, check for debris in the base.
• Includes both parts: This listing is a set—filter and cover. You don’t need to buy them separately. The cover is often overlooked but can warp or crack over time.

Should You Buy It

If you own a Honda GCV160/190 or HRX/HRR mower and need a quick, guaranteed-fit replacement for your air filter and cover, this OEM set is the right choice. It’s cheap, easy to install, and will keep your engine running clean. Skip if you’re on a tight budget and willing to risk aftermarket fitment.
