The Honda 17231-ZG9-800ZE Air Cleaner Cover (Grip Gray) is a genuine OEM component designed for the GXV140 vertical shaft engine. Sourced directly from Honda, this cover matches the original in color, fit, and construction — no guesswork, no improvisation. This is the Grip Gray variant; confirm the color against your existing cover before ordering, as GXV140 engines were produced with more than one cover finish.
Key Features
- Genuine Honda OEM Part — manufactured to the same specification as the original, ensuring correct panel geometry and secure latch engagement for the GXV140 air cleaner assembly.
- Correct Color Match — Grip Gray finish matches the original cover on color-matched GXV140 units; verify your cover color before ordering if you are unsure of your engine's variant.
- Direct Replacement — replaces the factory air cleaner cover on GXV140 vertical shaft engines with no alteration required to surrounding components.
- Serial Number Awareness — Honda updates and supersedes parts at production serial breaks; check your engine's serial number against the fitment table to confirm this is the correct cover for your unit.
The air cleaner cover is the outermost protective shell of the air filtration system. It shields the filter element from rain, dust, and debris, keeping contaminants out of the airstream before they can reach the carburetor and combustion chamber. A cracked, broken, or missing cover allows unfiltered air into the engine, which accelerates wear on internal components and can cause hard starting, rough running, or premature engine damage. Replacing a damaged cover with a correct-fit OEM unit restores the intended level of protection and keeps the air cleaner assembly functioning as designed.
