Description
Overview:
This Genuine Honda Air Filter Base Plate (OEM 17235-ZE1-831) is a moulded, high-impact polymer mounting base for the cartridge-type air cleaner used on Honda GX engines. It locates and seals the air filter to the carburettor body, helping the engine breathe cleanly while adding acoustic damping for reduced intake noise. Designed for heavy-use construction and garden machinery, it gives a secure, accurate fit to maintain performance and fuel efficiency. Suitable for popular engines such as the GX120 and GX160, it replaces worn or warped bases that can cause poor starting, rough running, or dust ingress. A direct replacement for earlier number 17235-ZE1-830, this part helps restore correct intake alignment and gasket compression, supporting smooth, reliable operation in demanding environments.
