Anxingo 17211-ZL8-023 Air Filter With 17231-Z0L-050 Cleaner Cover Replacement for Honda GCV135 GCV160 GCV190 Engine HRB216 HRB217 HRR216 HRS216 Motor Pressure Washer Push Lawn Mower + Spark Plug

What It Is

This is a replacement air filter kit (filter + foam pre-cleaner cover) and spark plug combo for Honda GCV135, GCV160, and GCV190 engines. It’s designed for push mowers (HRB216, HRB217, HRR216, HRS216), pressure washers, and other small engines using those powerplants.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Engines: Honda GCV135, GCV160, GCV190 only. Does not fit GCV200 or GX series.
• OEM Part Numbers: Air filter 17211-ZL8-023, cleaner cover 17231-Z0L-050, spark plug (equivalent to Honda 98079-55846 or standard BPR6ES).
• Check before buying: Remove your old air filter cover and verify the mounting holes align. The foam cover attaches with a single screw. Spark plug gap should be set to 0.028–0.031 inches (0.7–0.8 mm) before installation.
• Deck size irrelevant – fitment is purely engine-based, not mower deck width.
• Aftermarket note: This is a non-OEM kit. OEM Honda parts cost more but may last longer. Check that the foam cover fits snugly—some aftermarket covers are slightly loose.

Key Things to Know

• Installation difficulty: Easy (5 minutes). Remove old filter, swap foam cover, install new filter and plug. No special tools beyond a spark plug socket.
• Quality: Filter media is adequate for regular use, but foam cover material may degrade faster than OEM. Inspect annually.
• Common gotcha: The spark plug included is a basic copper plug. If you run in heavy dust or high hours, consider upgrading to an iridium plug (e.g., NGK BPR6EIX) for longer life.
• Price vs value: At $8 for filter, cover, and plug, it’s cheaper than buying OEM parts separately. Good for budget tune-ups, but expect shorter service intervals.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you need a quick, low-cost tune-up for a Honda GCV135/160/190 mower or pressure washer and don’t mind replacing the filter slightly more often than OEM. Skip it if you want maximum durability or run in very dusty conditions—invest in genuine Honda parts instead.
