Description
Overview:
This Genuine Honda valve stem seal controls oil around the inlet or exhaust valve stem, helping to maintain clean combustion and stable running. It is designed for Honda GXV160H2 and GXV160UH2 engines used in professional and domestic pedestrian mowers. The seal is made from an oil‐resistant elastomer bonded to a metal shell with a precision sealing lip and a small garter spring to keep consistent contact on the valve stem. By stopping oil migrating down the valve guide into the combustion chamber, it reduces exhaust smoke, oil consumption, and spark plug fouling. Built to Honda's specification for heat and chemical resistance, it is a direct replacement that restores reliable sealing performance in lawn mowers and similar garden machinery.
Key Features:
- Genuine Honda part for assured fit and performance
- Precise sealing to limit oil consumption and reduce smoke
- Oil‐resistant elastomer with metal shell and garter spring for durability
