This is a 3-pack of air filters and foam pre-cleaners designed for Honda GCV160 and GCV190 engines. It replaces OEM part 17211-ZL8-023 and fits push mowers, pressure washers, and generators using those engines—including Honda HRC216, HRR216VKA, HRX217, Husqvarna 7021P, and Craftsman models.
Fitment & Compatibility
Before buying, verify your engine model (not just mower brand). The GCV160 and GCV190 are used across many brands, so check the engine sticker. This filter pack fits Honda engines with a rectangular air box and a single bolt-on cover. It does not fit GCV200, GCV530, or older Honda engines with round filters. Measure your current filter: OEM is roughly 4.5" x 3" x 1.5". The pre-cleaner is a separate foam layer that sits over the paper filter. If your mower uses a different filter shape (e.g., HRX217 with a different air box design), confirm your model’s filter number is 17211-ZL8-023.
Key Things to Know
- Quality vs OEM: These are aftermarket but match OEM dimensions and material. Users report good seal and fit, though some note the foam pre-cleaner is slightly thinner than Honda’s.
- Installation: Simple—remove the air box cover, swap the old filter and pre-cleaner, reinstall. No tools required beyond a screwdriver for the cover screws on some models.
- Common gotcha: The pre-cleaner must be oiled (use foam filter oil or lightly coat with engine oil) before installation. Running it dry reduces filtration.
- Value: At ~$2.66 per filter, this is a fraction of the OEM price. Fine for routine maintenance, but if you run in heavy dust, consider OEM for longer life.
Should You Buy It
If you own a Honda GCV160 or GCV190 engine and want a budget-friendly, reliable filter swap for regular maintenance, this pack works. It’s ideal for homeowners who change filters seasonally and don’t need OEM longevity. Skip it if you prefer OEM parts for commercial use or if your engine model isn’t listed.
