Description
Overview:
This Push Rod is a genuine Kawasaki engine component for maintaining accurate valve actuation in overhead-valve V‐twin engines. Manufactured from durable, precision-ground steel, it transfers motion from the camshaft lifter to the rocker arm to open and close the valves at the correct time. Suitable for garden and light construction machinery using Kawasaki powerplants, it helps keep engines running smoothly and efficiently under everyday workloads. Designed to match OEM No. 131162057, it offers a dependable fit and function in engines such as the Kawasaki FH531V and FH541V. Choosing a genuine part helps maintain factory performance, reduces the risk of premature wear, and supports reliable cold starts, steady idle, and consistent power delivery across the rev range.
