The Honda 16852-ZB7-000 Fuel Tube (Cock-Strainer) is a genuine OEM replacement designed for EX3300 generators, EX4500 generators, and the EXW171 welder generator. As a factory-original component, this fuel tube carries Honda's exact dimensions and material tolerances, ensuring a proper connection between the fuel cock and the downstream fuel circuit. Confirm your unit's serial number against the fitment table before ordering — Honda updates part numbers at serial breaks, and part number 16852-ZB7-000 covers specific production ranges within these models.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Fuel Routing — Honda-sourced tubing sized to the exact internal diameter and length of the original, maintaining correct fuel flow to the carburetor without restriction or leakage.
- Integrated Strainer Function — the cock-strainer design captures debris before it enters the fuel circuit, protecting the carburetor from contamination that causes hard starting or rough running.
- Direct OEM Replacement — engineered to the same specification as the part it replaces on EX3300, EX4500, and EXW171 units; no trimming or adaptation needed.
- Serial Number Verification Recommended — Honda revises fuel system components at production breaks, so cross-check your generator's serial number against the compatibility table to confirm this is the correct tube for your unit.
The Fuel Tube (Cock-Strainer) carries fuel from the shutoff cock to the carburetor, keeping the supply line clear of particulate matter that would otherwise settle into the fuel metering circuits. The built-in strainer element catches rust, sediment, and debris before they reach the carburetor jets, where even small particles can obstruct fuel flow and cause lean running, hesitation, or failure to start. When the tube cracks, hardens with age, or the strainer becomes blocked, fuel delivery to the carburetor is compromised — restoring the original component brings the generator's fuel system back to proper working order.
