The Honda 14431-Z1T-000 Valve Rocker Arm is a genuine OEM component designed for GX160 and GX200 horizontal shaft engines, GXV160 vertical shaft engines, HRC216 lawn mowers, and FC600 tillers. As a direct Honda OEM replacement, this part is manufactured to the same specifications as the original, ensuring proper valve train geometry and consistent operation. Honda supersedes parts at serial number breaks, so confirm your machine's serial number against the fitment table before ordering. This Valve Rocker Arm is the correct solution for restoring proper valve actuation across a range of Honda-powered equipment.
Key Features
- Genuine Honda OEM Quality — manufactured by Honda to match the original valve rocker arm's geometry and contact surfaces, ensuring correct valve lift and timing across every engine revolution
- Correct Valve Train Engagement — installs directly into the OHV valvetrain, pivoting on the rocker shaft to open and close the intake or exhaust valve with the same timing and clearance as the original part
- Broad Equipment Compatibility — fits GX160 and GX200 horizontal shaft engines, GXV160 vertical shaft engines, HRC216 lawn mowers, and FC600 tillers; verify your serial number against the fitment table to confirm the correct application
- Restored Engine Compression and Performance — a worn or damaged rocker arm causes improper valve timing, leading to loss of compression, rough running, hard starting, or reduced power output
The valve rocker arm is a pivoting lever in the OHV valvetrain that transfers motion from the pushrod to the valve stem, opening and closing the intake or exhaust valve at precisely the right moment in the engine's cycle. Proper rocker arm geometry is essential for maintaining correct valve clearance, which directly affects compression, fuel efficiency, and smooth power delivery. When a rocker arm wears at its contact surfaces or becomes damaged, valve timing is disrupted, causing symptoms such as poor starting, loss of power, excessive valve noise, or low compression — all of which this genuine Honda replacement is built to correct.
