The Honda 14100-ZL0-870 Camshaft Assembly is a genuine OEM component designed for GX160 and GX200 horizontal shaft engines. As a factory-original part, it is manufactured to the same specifications as the assembly it replaces, ensuring correct valve timing and proper operation from the moment it is installed. This Camshaft Assembly is the right choice when a worn or damaged camshaft is causing valve train issues, loss of compression, or a drop in engine performance. Always verify your engine's serial number against the fitment table before ordering, as Honda supersedes parts at serial breaks.
Key Features
- Correct Valve Timing — as a genuine OEM Camshaft Assembly, this part is ground to Honda's exact lobe profiles, ensuring intake and exhaust valves open and close at precisely the right points in the combustion cycle
- Direct OEM Replacement — engineered to drop into GX160 and GX200 horizontal shaft engines as an exact substitute for the original, with no fitting adjustments needed
- Serial Number Awareness — Honda updates part numbers at specific production breaks; confirm your engine's serial number against the fitment table to ensure part number 14100-ZL0-870 is the correct supersession for your unit
- Restored Engine Output — a worn camshaft causes erratic idling, weak power, and hard starting; replacing it with this assembly brings valve actuation back to spec and restores full engine performance
The camshaft is a precision-machined shaft that rotates inside the engine in sync with the crankshaft, using its lobes to open and close the intake and exhaust valves at precisely timed intervals in the combustion cycle. On GX160 and GX200 horizontal shaft engines, the camshaft also drives the automatic compression release mechanism that eases starting by briefly holding the exhaust valve open during cranking. When the camshaft wears — through loss of lubrication, extended service, or a sudden mechanical failure — valve timing drifts, compression drops, and the engine becomes difficult to start, rough-running, or underpowered; replacing it with a genuine OEM assembly restores correct timing and brings the engine back to its original operating condition.
