The Honda 17510-ZE2-801ZB Fuel Tank (Mat Black) is a genuine OEM replacement designed for GX240 and GX270 horizontal shaft engines. As a factory-original component, this fuel tank is manufactured to Honda's exact specifications, ensuring a correct fit and proper integration with the fuel system on these engines. This is the mat black variant — verify that the finish matches your original tank before ordering, as Honda lists this model range with more than one color option.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Fuel Containment — sourced directly from Honda, this tank is built to the exact capacity, port placement, and sealing geometry required by the GX240 and GX270 engine fuel systems.
- Mat Black Finish — this is the mat black color variant; confirm the finish code on your original tank matches before purchasing, as multiple finish options exist for this engine family.
- Direct OEM Replacement — drops into position as a like-for-like swap on compatible GX240 and GX270 engines, using your existing hardware and fittings.
- Serial Number Verification Recommended — Honda updates part numbers at production breakpoints, so cross-check your engine's serial number against the fitment table to confirm this is the correct tank for your specific unit.
The fuel tank stores the engine's gasoline supply and feeds it to the carburetor through a petcock or fuel valve, keeping a consistent flow of fuel available during operation. A cracked, warped, or leaking tank starves the engine of fuel, causes hard starting, and creates a fire hazard — making prompt replacement critical. Installing a correct-fitting OEM tank restores the fuel supply path and ensures the mounting points, fuel outlet, and cap interface align properly with the rest of the engine assembly.
