Description
Overview:
This Genuine Honda Air Filter Cover protects the air filter on Honda small engines, helping maintain clean airflow and consistent performance. Made from durable moulded plastic in a hard-wearing black finish, it shields the filter from dust, grass and debris while providing a secure seal against the air box. Designed for Honda GCV145 and GCV170 engines, it matches the OEM geometry for a precise fit and reliable retention. It is suitable for common garden machinery such as walk-behind lawnmowers and compact equipment using these engines. Identified by OEM No. 17231 Z9L 000, it is an ideal replacement when the original cover is cracked, missing, or no longer latching correctly, helping to preserve filtration efficiency and engine life.
