ANTO 16100-Z0Y-853 Carburetor for Honda GCV190 GCV190LA GCV190A Engine HRX217 HRB217 Lawn Mower Pressure Washer with Air Filter Cleaner Cover kit

What It Is

This is an aftermarket carburetor kit designed to replace the OEM Honda part on GCV190-series engines, commonly used in Honda HRX217 and HRB217 mowers, pressure washers, and other small equipment. It includes the carburetor, air filter, cleaner cover, and gaskets.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Engine: Fits Honda GCV190, GCV190LA, GCV190A engines only. Not for GCV160 or GCV200.
• Machine: Works with HRX217 and HRB217 mower models, plus pressure washers using the same engine. Check your machine’s engine model number (stamped on valve cover or shroud).
• OEM vs Aftermarket: This is a non-OEM replacement. It matches the OEM Honda part number 16100-Z0Y-853 but may have slight differences in jetting or gasket thickness.
• What to measure: Measure the carburetor mounting bolt spacing (about 60mm center-to-center) and air filter housing dimensions. The kit includes a new air filter and cover, so old housing parts aren’t needed unless you want to reuse them.
• Check before buying: Confirm your mower’s model number (e.g., HRX217K6) and engine serial number. If your machine uses a different carburetor gasket pattern, this won’t fit.

Key Things to Know

• Installation difficulty: Moderate. Requires removing the air filter housing, disconnecting fuel lines, and swapping gaskets. Expect 30–60 minutes with basic hand tools.
• Quality: Generally good for the price, but some users report needing to adjust the idle mixture screw or clean out debris from manufacturing. The included air filter is basic—consider upgrading to a premium filter.
• Common gotchas: The fuel line may be stiff or slightly different diameter; have a small fuel line clamp or zip tie ready. Also, the carburetor bowl gasket can leak if not seated perfectly—tighten evenly.
• Performance: Restores starting and idle to near-OEM levels, but you may need to adjust the throttle linkage if the new carburetor doesn’t match your old one exactly.

Should You Buy It

This is a solid budget fix if your GCV190 engine runs rough, won’t start, or has a clogged carburetor. It’s best for DIYers comfortable with basic carburetor work who want to save over a $50+ OEM part. If you prefer zero fuss or have a newer machine under warranty, stick with the genuine Honda carburetor.
