The Honda 17701-Z0M-780 Fuel Tank Tube is a genuine OEM replacement designed for GCV135 and GCV160 vertical shaft engines. As a direct Honda OEM component, this fuel tank tube is manufactured to the same specifications as the original, ensuring a proper connection between the fuel tank and the engine's fuel system. This part is the correct replacement for GCV135 and GCV160 engines — confirm your engine's serial number against the fitment table to ensure this is the right part for your unit.
Key Features
- Genuine Honda OEM — sourced directly from Honda, this fuel tank tube matches the original component in dimensions and material, ensuring a proper seal and consistent fuel delivery to the engine.
- Correct Fuel Line Fit — designed specifically for GCV135 and GCV160 vertical shaft engines, this tube connects as the original did with no adaptation needed.
- Serial Number Verification Recommended — Honda supersedes parts at specific serial breaks, so cross-check your engine's serial number against the fitment table before ordering.
- Fuel Flow Integrity — a cracked, kinked, or deteriorated fuel tank tube restricts or cuts off fuel delivery, causing hard starting, rough running, or a no-start condition; replacing it restores normal fuel flow to the carburetor.
The fuel tank tube carries fuel from the tank to the carburetor, forming a critical link in the engine's fuel delivery path. When the tube cracks, hardens with age, or develops a pinhole, the engine may be starved of fuel or draw in air, leading to lean-running conditions, stalling, or failure to start. Replacing a worn tube with a genuine Honda part restores the sealed, unobstructed fuel path the GCV135 and GCV160 engines depend on for consistent operation.
