Description
Overview:
This Valve Stem Seal is a genuine Honda OEM component for GC135, GC160 and GC190 series small engines used across Honda lawnmowers and other compact power equipment. The seal controls oil at the valve guide, preventing it from entering the combustion chamber. This helps maintain clean combustion, steady idle, and reliable starting while reducing blue exhaust smoke and oil consumption. Built from heat- and oil-resistant elastomer bonded to a shaped metal shell, it keeps its grip and sealing performance under high temperatures and continuous use. Engineered to Honda tolerances for a precise, secure fit, it is suitable for routine maintenance and top-end repairs on models such as the HRX476 and HRG536 ranges equipped with GC/GCV/GS/GSV engines.
Key Features:
- Genuine Honda OEM part for correct fit and long service life
- Prevents oil from entering the combustion chamber to protect performance
- Helps reduce exhaust smoke and spark plug fouling
- Oil- and heat-resistant sealing materials for durability in demanding conditions
- Metal-cased design provides stable seating on the valve guide
- Precision-moulded sealing lip for consistent oil control
- Designed to match Honda valve train dimensions; no modification required
- Suitable for inlet and exhaust positions where specified by Honda
- Supports lower oil consumption and cleaner running over time
- Compact form allows straightforward installation during head service
Typical Applications:
Used during cylinder head servicing and top-end rebuilds on Honda GC/GCV/GS/GSV engines fitted to walk-behind mowers and other light machinery. Commonly selected when addressing blue smoke, rising oil use, or wet, fouled spark plugs on models in the HRG, HRX, HRD and HRB series, as well as other garden and light construction equipment using these engines.
Also known as:
Valve stem oil seal, valve guide oil seal, valve seal, stem seal, top-end oil seal for Honda small engines.
