CCV160 Air Filter Cover Replace 17231-Z0L-050 Cleaner Cover 17211-ZL8-023 Air Filter for Honda GCV135 GCV190 HRX217 HRB216 HRB217 HRR216 HRS216 HRT216 Pressure Washer Lawn Mower

What It Is

This is a replacement air filter cover and filter set for Honda GCV135/GCV190 engines, commonly used on HRX217, HRB216, HRB217, HRR216, HRS216, and HRT216 mowers, plus select Honda pressure washers. The cover (17231-Z0L-050) seals the air filter housing, while the filter (17211-ZL8-023) keeps debris out of the carburetor.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your engine model: GCV135 or GCV190. This set fits most Honda walk-behind mowers with those engines—check your mower’s model tag (e.g., HRX217VKA) but note that deck size (21” or 22”) does not determine filter fitment; only the engine matters. The cover is OEM-style plastic, not genuine Honda, but dimensions match the original: roughly 4.5” x 3.5” x 1.5”. If you have a Honda pressure washer with a GCV engine, it should also work. Avoid this if your engine uses a different filter shape (e.g., GCV160/200 with rectangular covers).

Key Things to Know

• Quality: This is a third-party replacement, not genuine Honda. Most users report it fits and seals well, but the plastic may feel slightly thinner than OEM.
• Installation: Easy—remove the old cover’s wing nut, swap the filter, reattach the cover, and tighten the nut by hand. No tools needed.
• Common gotcha: The foam pre-filter (if present) is not included; you’ll need to reuse your old one or buy separately. Also, ensure the gasket on the cover is seated properly to avoid air leaks.
• Price vs OEM: At $12.99, it’s about half the cost of a genuine Honda set. If you’re on a tight budget, this is a solid value, but long-term durability may be lower.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you have a Honda GCV135/GCV190 mower or pressure washer and need a quick, cheap filter replacement—it works reliably for most users. Skip it if you prefer genuine Honda parts for maximum longevity or if your engine has a different filter housing design.
