The Honda 17701-ZF6-F43 Fuel Tank Tube (FKM) is a genuine OEM replacement designed for EB5000 and EM5000 generators, EB7000, EM7000, and EU6500 inverter generators. As a direct OEM component, this fuel tank tube is manufactured to Honda's exact specifications, ensuring a proper connection within the fuel delivery path of your generator. Honda supersedes parts at serial breaks, so confirm your unit's serial number against the fitment table before ordering to make sure part number 17701-ZF6-F43 is the correct application for your machine.
Key Features
- FKM Construction — the FKM (fluoroelastomer) compound used in this fuel tank tube offers strong resistance to fuel degradation, keeping the fuel line pliable and sealed over extended service intervals in a way standard rubber cannot match.
- Genuine Honda OEM Part — sourced directly from Honda, this tube meets the exact dimensional and material requirements of the original, ensuring proper connection to the fuel tank without modification.
- Broad Generator Fitment — compatible with EB5000 and EM5000 generators and EB7000, EM7000, and EU6500 inverter generators, covering a wide range of Honda's portable power lineup.
- Serial Number Matters — Honda updates part applications at production serial breaks; always cross-reference your generator's serial number with the fitment table to confirm this is the correct tube for your unit.
- Fuel Delivery Integrity — a cracked, hardened, or deteriorated fuel tank tube restricts or interrupts fuel flow to the generator, causing hard starting, rough running, or a complete loss of power output; replacing it with this OEM tube restores consistent fuel delivery.
The fuel tank tube connects the fuel tank to the downstream fuel system components on your Honda generator, carrying fuel from the tank toward the carburetor. Because this tube is in constant contact with gasoline, the material it is made from is critical — a tube that has hardened, cracked, or swelled internally will restrict flow or allow air into the fuel path, causing performance problems or preventing the generator from running at all. The FKM compound used in part number 17701-ZF6-F43 is specifically suited to prolonged fuel contact, making it the correct choice when replacing a deteriorated or damaged original tube on your EB5000, EM5000, EB7000, EM7000, or EU6500 generator.
