The Honda 13310-ZH9-601 Crankshaft is a genuine OEM Crankshaft designed for GX240 and GX270 horizontal shaft engines. As a direct OEM replacement, this crankshaft is manufactured to Honda's exact specifications, ensuring a correct fit without guesswork or modification. Confirm your engine's serial number against the fitment table before ordering, as Honda supersedes crankshaft part numbers at serial breaks and more than one variant may be listed for these models.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Precision — manufactured by Honda to exact tolerances for proper journal geometry, stroke, and bearing surface alignment — critical for smooth engine operation and long service life
- Direct OEM Replacement — engineered to drop into GX240 and GX270 horizontal shaft engines in place of the original, with correct main journal diameters and rod journal geometry to match Honda's connecting rod and bearing specifications
- Verified Fitment — designed specifically for GX240 and GX270 horizontal shaft engines; verify your engine's serial number against the compatibility table to confirm this is the correct crankshaft for your unit
- Restores Full Power Output — a worn or damaged crankshaft causes vibration, oil leaks at the seals, and loss of compression; replacing it with a genuine OEM part brings the engine back to its original operating condition
The crankshaft is the central rotating component of a four-stroke engine. It converts the linear force of the piston's power stroke into rotational power that drives the engine's output shaft. A crankshaft in good condition maintains proper alignment between the piston, connecting rod, and main bearings, which is essential for stable compression, smooth power delivery, and effective oil sealing at both ends of the engine. When a crankshaft is bent, worn at the journals, or damaged by a sudden impact load — such as a blade strike in equipment the engine powers — it causes vibration, accelerated bearing wear, oil seal failure, and ultimately a complete loss of usable power.
