The Honda 16100-Z8T-801 is a genuine OEM Carburetor Assembly (BE80K A) designed for GX340 horizontal shaft engines. As a direct Honda OEM component, this carburetor assembly is manufactured to the exact specifications of the original unit it replaces, ensuring proper fuel metering and air-to-fuel ratio without any guesswork. The BE80K A designation identifies a specific variant — verify this matches the carburetor on your GX340 before ordering, as multiple carburetor assemblies are catalogued for this engine family.
Key Features
- Correct Jetting and Fuel Metering — as a genuine Honda OEM carburetor assembly, this unit carries the exact jet sizing, emulsion tube calibration, and float geometry specified for the GX340, so fuel delivery stays consistent under load
- Variant-Specific Fitment — the BE80K A designation distinguishes this assembly from other GX340 carburetor variants; match it to the part number on your existing unit or confirm via your engine's serial number before purchase
- Direct OEM Replacement — built to replace the original carburetor assembly on GX340 horizontal shaft engines with no rejetted or recalibrated components needed
- Restored Engine Performance — a worn or damaged carburetor causes hard starting, rough idling, and poor throttle response; replacing it with this genuine assembly returns the engine to its intended operating characteristics
The carburetor assembly is responsible for mixing air and fuel in the correct proportion before delivery to the engine's combustion chamber. It regulates fuel flow through a system of jets, a float, and a needle valve, responding to throttle input to supply the right mixture at idle, mid-range, and full load. When a carburetor wears out or becomes fouled, the engine may run rough, stall under load, flood, or refuse to start — replacing the entire assembly rather than attempting to rebuild a worn unit restores proper operation quickly and reliably.
