GCV 160 Fuel Filter Air Filter for Honda GCV160 GCV170 GCV190 GCV200 GC160 GC190 Engine 17211-Z8B-901 Air Filter 16952-Z8B-000 Fuel Filter Parts for Honda HRX217 HRN216 HRR216 Lawn Mower

What It Is

This is a genuine Honda air filter (17211-Z8B-901) and fuel filter (16952-Z8B-000) set designed for GCV160, GCV170, GCV190, GCV200, GC160, and GC190 engines. It maintains clean airflow and fuel delivery in Honda push mowers like the HRX217, HRN216, and HRR216 series.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Engine check first: This set fits Honda GCV and GC series engines only (not GXV or other OHV engines). Look for the engine model number stamped on the blower housing or valve cover.
• Mower models: Works with HRX217, HRN216, HRR216, and many other Honda walk-behind mowers using those engines. Deck size doesn’t matter—engine model is the key.
• OEM vs aftermarket: These are genuine Honda parts, not generic replacements. The air filter has the OEM number 17211-Z8B-901; the fuel filter is 16952-Z8B-000. Aftermarket filters may be cheaper but often have lower filtration efficiency.
• Measurements: Air filter is about 4.5 x 2.5 x 1.5 inches. Fuel filter is roughly 1.5 x 1 inch. If your current filter is significantly different, double-check your engine model.

Key Things to Know

• Installation is easy: Both filters swap in without tools—remove the air filter cover, pull out the old filter, push in the new one. Fuel filter requires disconnecting the fuel line (use pliers to pinch the line or clamp it to prevent spillage).
• Change interval: Replace air filter every 100 hours or annually; fuel filter every 200 hours or every other season. If you mow in dusty conditions, change the air filter more often.
• Common gotcha: The fuel filter is small—make sure the arrow on the filter points toward the carburetor (fuel flow direction). Installing it backward will starve the engine.
• Genuine vs aftermarket: These OEM filters cost a few dollars more than generic ones but last longer and filter better. Aftermarket filters often have thinner paper that clogs faster.

Should You Buy It

If you own a Honda mower with a GCV160, GCV170, GCV190, GCV200, GC160, or GC190 engine and want reliable, long-lasting filtration, this OEM set is a solid buy. It’s a simple, low-cost maintenance upgrade that prevents engine wear and starting issues. Skip it if you have a different engine brand or an older Honda GXV series—those use different filters.
