The Honda 17511-Z8A-801 Fuel Tank is a genuine OEM replacement designed for GC160, GC190, GS160, and GS190 horizontal shaft engines. As a direct Honda OEM part, it is manufactured to the same standards as the original component, ensuring a correct fit with existing mounting points, fuel line connections, and hardware. This fuel tank is the right choice for restoring a damaged, cracked, or leaking tank on any of these engine series, and buyers should verify their engine's serial number against the fitment table to confirm compatibility for their specific production run.
Key Features
- Genuine Honda OEM Construction — molded and dimensioned to Honda's original specifications, so tank capacity, mounting geometry, and connection points match exactly what came off the assembly line
- Correct Fuel Containment — a cracked or degraded tank causes fuel leaks and starvation under load; this replacement restores consistent fuel delivery to the carburettor and keeps the engine running as intended
- Broad GC/GS Series Coverage — fits GC160, GC190, GS160, and GS190 horizontal shaft engines, covering a wide range of residential and commercial equipment applications
- Serial Number Verification Recommended — Honda updates components at production breaks, so match your engine's serial number to the fitment table before ordering to ensure this is the correct tank for your unit
The fuel tank stores the gasoline supply that feeds the engine's carburettor during operation. It connects to the fuel system via a petcock or fuel line, delivering a steady gravity-fed or vacuum-assisted flow of fuel to keep combustion consistent. When a tank develops a crack, warps at the seams, or degrades internally, it can cause fuel leaks, air ingestion, and erratic running — or prevent the engine from starting altogether. Replacing a compromised tank with a genuine OEM part, part number 17511-Z8A-801, restores the integrity of the fuel system and gets the engine back to normal operation.
