The Honda 16166-ZE7-W10 Main Nozzle is a genuine OEM replacement designed for GXV160 vertical shaft engines, HRA215 lawn mowers, HRC215 lawn mowers, and HRC216 lawn mowers. As a direct Honda OEM component, this nozzle meets the same fuel-metering specifications as the original part, ensuring proper air-fuel calibration is restored rather than approximated. Confirm your machine's serial number against the fitment table before ordering, as Honda supersedes parts at production breaks and more than one revision may cover these models.
Key Features
- Correct Fuel Metering — genuine OEM construction means the orifice diameter matches Honda's original specification, delivering the precise fuel flow the carburetor was calibrated around
- Direct OEM Replacement — this part installs in place of the original without alteration, restoring the carburetor to its as-manufactured operating state
- Broad Fitment — covers GXV160 vertical shaft engines as well as HRA215, HRC215, and HRC216 lawn mowers; verify your serial number to confirm the correct revision for your unit
- Restores Mid-Range and Full-Throttle Response — a worn or clogged main nozzle starves the engine of fuel under load, causing stumbling, hesitation, and power loss; a fresh nozzle returns crisp throttle response
The main nozzle is a small but critical carburetor component responsible for metering fuel into the main circuit during mid-range and wide-open-throttle operation. Fuel is drawn through the nozzle's precisely sized orifice and mixed with incoming air in the carburetor bore, producing the combustible mixture the engine needs to run smoothly under load. When the nozzle becomes worn, varnished, or blocked by fuel deposits, the engine is starved of fuel at higher throttle positions, resulting in rough running, hesitation, or a loss of power that no amount of external adjustment will fully correct. Replacing the main nozzle with a genuine Honda part restores the carburetor's calibration and brings the engine back to its original operating condition.
