Description
Overview:
This carburettor insulator (Honda 16211-ZE1-000) is a genuine Honda spacer block for small petrol engines, including the GX140 and GX160. Made from a heat-resistant composite (phenolic-style) material, it sits between the cylinder head/intake and the carburettor to act as a thermal barrier. By reducing heat soak into the carburettor, it helps prevent fuel percolation, supports stable air-fuel mixture, and improves hot and cold running. The insulator is shaped to match the port and stud pattern of the engine, ensuring correct alignment and sealing when used with standard gaskets. Ideal for construction and garden machinery powered by Honda GX160/GX140 engines, it offers reliable performance, long service life, and a straightforward like-for-like replacement for worn or heat-damaged original parts.
Key Features:
- Genuine Honda part for assured fit and reliability (MPN 16211-ZE1-000)
- Heat barrier reduces carburettor temperature and helps prevent vapour lock
- Helps maintain smooth idle, consistent throttle response, and easier restarts
- Durable, heat-resistant composite material for long service life
- Precision moulded with correct bore, stud spacing, and thickness for OEM performance
- Designed specifically for Honda GX140 and GX160 series engines
- Compatible with standard Honda gaskets and hardware for straightforward fitting
- Stable running under continuous load common in site and garden equipment
- Suitable as preventive maintenance during carburettor service or rebuilds
- Direct replacement for worn, warped, or heat-soaked original insulators
Typical Applications:
Used on equipment powered by Honda GX140/GX160 engines, such as plate compactors, generators, water pumps, pressure washers, small mixers, tillers, and mowers. Ideal where engines operate for long periods or in hot conditions, helping protect the carburettor from excess heat and supporting reliable running throughout the workday.
