Key Features
- Genuine OEM Fuel System Integrity — manufactured by Honda to the same specification as the original cap, maintaining a proper fuel tank seal against leaks and contamination.
- Direct Replacement Fit — designed to thread onto the fuel tank opening of GX160 and GX240 engines exactly as the original did, with no modification needed.
- Broad GX-Series Coverage — fits GX160 and GX240 horizontal shaft engines; check your serial number against the fitment table to confirm the correct application for your unit.
- Prevents Fuel Loss and Debris Ingestion — a properly sealing cap keeps fuel contained and blocks dirt, dust, and moisture from entering the tank, protecting fuel system components downstream.
The fuel filler cap seals the opening of the engine's fuel tank, keeping fuel securely contained during operation, transport, and storage. It prevents evaporative fuel loss and stops dirt, debris, and moisture from entering the tank and contaminating the fuel supply. When a cap cracks, loses its seal, or fails to seat properly, fuel can leak or evaporate and contaminants can reach the carburetor, leading to hard starting, rough running, or accelerated wear on fuel system components.
